How We Can Help
- What will happen to your family if you pass away?
- How can you ensure medical treatment that reflects your wishes?
- Does divorce affect your Will?
- If I don’t have a Living Will or Health Care Power of Attorney, Who will make these decisions for me?
If you die without a will, state law will determine how most of your belongings are distributed, and the result may not be what you would want. These laws establish a ranking of inheritors.
Westmoreland Legal, P.A. understands any individual that has a family or has acquired assets needs a Will. Individuals with minor children (18 or under in North Carolina) also have guardianship considerations. A valid, enforceable Will ensures that you have control over what happens in case of your death. Without a Will, the Courts make the determination for you.
If you become incapacitated, or suffer a serious medical condition, what rights or choices do you have? A Living Will outlines for your family what your health care choices are while still living. A Health Care Power of Attorney allows for a person of your choosing to make medical decisions outlined within. And a Power of Attorney can give a person you designate the right to handle any personal matters outlined within. This also ensures that you and your family have the same expectations should anything occur.
