It's Never to Late to Plan — Or Too Early

Many people do not like to think about old age and the possibility of incapacity. But time never stops and some day the reality of old age will be upon you. The sooner you start to plan for retirement and your later years, the better off you and your family will be.

Myles, Cook & Day can help you make the decisions needed to provide for nursing home care and the eventual transfer of your assets to your loved ones. We can draft a will, create trusts, and help you protect your assets. As your family and financial situations change, we can amend and adjust your estate planning documents — so that they continue to provide you with protection and peace of mind.

It's never too late — or too early — to plan.

Guardianships and Powers of Attorney

A formal guardianship may be needed when a person is no longer able to make decisions for himself or herself. But a court’s involvement in establishing a guardianship can often be costly and complicated. There is an alternative to guardianship — the durable power of attorney. This can enable you to manage the affairs of the incapacitated person in a more efficient and cost-effective manner.

An attorney at Myles, Cook & Day can discuss your situation and the pros and cons of each approach. We can then take the actions necessary to create the legal vehicles needed to administer the incapacitated person's affairs.
