Make sure your family is protected. Get the three documents every person needs to protect the ones they love. 1. Complete Will A Complete Will is the best way to put your wishes in writing. With a Complete Will you decide how your property and assets are distributed, and if you have young children, it also documents who you want to take care of them.
2. Power of Attorney A Power of Attorney (also known as a POA) document gives legal permission to someone else to act on your behalf if you're unable to write checks, sign official documents or handle other legal matters. Some business owners use a POA to elect someone to sign legal documents or write checks for them.
3. Living Will A Living Will is also known as a healthcare power of attorney or an advanced healthcare directive. It allows someone else to make critical healthcare decisions for you when you're unable to do so yourself. Rocket Lawyer offers state-specific Living Will documents, so you know your needs are covered.
