Wills and Trusts

All adults should have at least a living will, a power of attorney, and a legal Oregon will. These are the requirements necessary to make your intentions known when you can no longer speak for yourself. Having an attorney draft these documents for you can prevent having them invalidated if you were to draft them yourself.

I can help you with,

• An advance directive (living will)
• Durable power of attorney
• Special power of attorney
• Simple wills
• Complex wills with trust provisions
• Revocable Living trusts
• Advance health care directives
• Special needs trusts
• Guardianships and conservatorships
• Many other will and trust documents

I can also help you petition for guardianship when a person becomes so incapacitated that he or she is in danger of serious physical injury or illness. The guardian will provide continuing care and supervision. If your family member cannot manage his or her financial resources, I can also help with the appointment of a conservator who will handle their business affairs.
