SAMPLE LEGAL CASES

Holidays, Family, and the Gift of Advanced Directives
During the holidays, spending time with family often reveals changes in aging relatives that might otherwise go unnoticed. Whether it's a physical decline, cognitive issues, or struggles with daily tasks, these observations can serve as reminders to have important conversations about future care. Advanced directives and powers of attorney are essential legal tools that ensure your loved ones' wishes are respected, and relieve potential stress on family members during challenging times.
CARING FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY WHEN MEDICAL EMERGENCY OR ILLNESS STRIKES : What is an Advance Directive?
Advanced directives are vital legal documents that empower individuals to make their Health Care preferences known in the event they are unable to communicate or make decisions themselves.
Taking Charge: Early Stage Memory Loss & Advance Care Planning
Memory loss from many causes, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's or other dementias can be progressive, so it’s important to revisit budgets,  medical assessments,  financial and legal plans periodically to make adjustments as circumstances change. Having open conversations with family members, lawyers and other  trusted individuals about financial decisions, the individual’s wishes, and the role they may play in the future can make memory loss less  stressful for all involved.
