The Power of a Power of Attorney

​Last year I did a document set for a friend’s son who was going to be living abroad for a couple of years. There was a power of attorney and health care documents. There was no occasion to use the documents for the first year but recently, the son had his ATM card chewed up and his parents were able to use the power of attorney to get him a new card. Then, when taxes were due, they realized that their son had neglected to get some important tax documents sent on from his work. They were able to use the power of attorney to request and receive the tax documents.

The teacher was sitting right in front of T and T kept clearing his throat in a loudly manner and belching. I could see that the teacher was getting a little annoyed by T’s behavior. This made me think about care plans in special needs estate planning.

The Importance of Conservatorship

Most parents of children with special needs want their child to be as independent as possible. As their child gets older and reaches the age of majority, usually 18 years old, they may not be ready to accept all the responsibilities of an adult. I encourage parents to consider what vulnerabilities their child may have if they do not have a power of attorney, health care documents or a guardianship (either limited or full, depending on the circumstances) in place. If the child is vulnerable to being taken advantage of financially, a power of attorney or a conservatorship might be appropriate.

So, Do I need a Trust if I Own a Trailer?

Isn't it funny that whenever a community is built, that the word "estates" seems to apply? Even when the neighborhood doesn't look like an estate-worthy neighborhood. In fact, most residents of a trailer park would find it hard to believe that they have an estate at all. Do they? Of course they do, and there's a need to protect it. In fact, depending on the neighborhood there may be more of a need for estate planning than if they lived in what most of us imagine as "estates".
