As we age, we may no longer maintain an adequate capacity to care for our own or our loved ones’ health or finances. Preparing for that possibility can ease your concerns and the burden it may place on your loved ones. While comprehensive estate and retirement planning are best, some of the easiest steps to take are preparing a:

(1) Health Care Power of Attorney;

(2) Durable (financial) Power of Attorney; and

(3) HIPPA authorization.

The attorneys at Brooks, Tarulis & Tibble, LLC can not only assist you or your loved ones in preparing these documents, but can prepare a comprehensive estate plan for you . Please contact us with any questions.
