Rising care costs have the power to undo a lifetime of careful saving, but a solid estate plan can help shield your assets.
Care expenses can quietly creep up to $10,000 a month, catching families off guard. Without a proactive plan, you may be forced to liquidate assets, pay steep legal fees, or spark family tension.
A Missouri estate planning attorney will help you design a strategy that protects what you’ve built, maximizes benefits, and gives your family financial peace of mind.
If age or illness affects your ability to manage personal matters, estate planning gives you the power to appoint someone you trust to act on your behalf.
With clearly defined instructions, you stay in control, ensuring your plans are honored to the letter.
As part of a comprehensive estate plan, a durable financial power of attorney lets you choose someone to handle your finances if you’re ever incapacitated.
From paying bills to managing investments, they act only when the conditions you specify are triggered, giving you both control and peace of mind.
Give a dependable person the authority to make medical choices for you. Detailed directives make it easier to carry out your wishes exactly as you intended.
An advance directive helps define the types of life-support you approve or reject, guiding healthcare professionals and loved ones to respect your choices when you’re unable to speak for yourself.
