Guardianship
Having a power of attorney may avoid the need for a guardianship. If you become incapacitated and have not signed a power of attorney, someone may be forced to petition the Circuit Court to have a guardian and/or conservator appointed for you. A guardianship and/or conservatorship proceeding can be an expensive, unpleasant and slow process for you, your family, and your friends. It is expensive because you will have to pay lawyers, court fees, and other fees. It can be unpleasant because a hearing must be held in open court, and it can be slow because it takes time to get a court date for the hearing. After the hearing, the Court will decide who should be your guardian or conservator and it may not be someone you would want handling your affairs. In addition, your conservator may be required to file certain documents with the court on an ongoing basis, which can be both time-consuming and expensive.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
In some cases, estate planning requires the expertise of accountants, tax advisors, financial planners, and other professionals working in coordination with your attorney. This is usually the case when the estate exceeds applicable federal and state tax exemption limits. In these cases, an appropriate estate plan may utilize multiple trusts, gifting strategies, and other means to reduce the size of the taxable estate and as a result minimize the estate tax. If you expect for your estate to be subject to estate taxes then it is highly advisable that you start planning now by speaking with your financial advisors and contacting our office or other competent legal firm for consultation and advice. Due to the complex nature of planning for taxable estates the discussion on this site is limited to information primarily relevant to basic estate planning devices.
Wills
Power of Attorney
A Power of Attorney is a written document that allows you (the “principal”) to appoint another person (the “agent”) to act on your behalf. A principal may give the agent powers that are very broad or very narrow and specific. A General Power of Attorney grants broad powers to the agent usually only limited by law. An agent with a General Power of Attorney would be able to do almost anything that you could do for yourself such as buying and selling property, managing assets, entering contracts on your behalf, etc. While a General Power of Attorney may also grant some authority to make health care decisions for the principal it is more common to see a separate Health Care Power of Attorney or Advance Medical Directive dealing with these issues. On the opposite end of the spectrum from a General Power of Attorney is the Limited Power of Attorney. A Limited Power of Attorney sets limits on the agent’s authority to act and these limits may be as specific or general as the principal wishes. In other words, a Limited Power of Attorney may be used to grant a person the authority to act on your behalf solely for the purpose of selling your car for you. Outside of the particular transaction involving the sale of your car the person would not have any authority to act on your behalf.
