3. Last Will
Expresses your desires for the handling of
your financial and personal affairs when you
die
Describes how you want your assets to be
distributed to your heirs upon death
Ensures that your loved ones receive what
you want them to receive, not just what the
court thinks they should receive
®
4. A Last Will allows you to…
Appoint a personal representative (executor)
who will be responsible in handling your
personal and financial affairs after your death
Choose a guardian to care for and raise your
minor children
Leave your property to your spouse in a way
different from what the state intestacy law
provides
Add beneficiaries who are not legal heirs, such
as step-children ®
5. Living Trust
Clearly states your wishes of your assets at
the time of your death
Makes your assets easier to distribute at your
death
Acts as an asset protection device to keep
your assets safe
Avoids the high cost and delays of probate
court
Can provide tax advantages for the
beneficiaries ®
6. A Living Trust allows you to…
Provide for someone else to take care of your
estate in the event of your disability or incapacity
without the involvement of costly, time-consuming
probate court
Provide for beneficiaries with special needs, or
delay the inheritance of your estate until the
beneficiaries reach a certain age, or have your
estate distributed in installments
Avoid many of the risks of liability associated with
joint ownership, including protection from any
claims of the creditors of your heirs ®
7. Health Care Power of Attorney
Provides for your medical well-being in the
event of your inability to make decisions
concerning your medical treatment or health
care due to illness, accident or injury
Leaves specific instructions for the level of
care you want to receive
Provides the ability, if desired, to authorize the
withholding of life-sustaining treatment if you
are in a coma or a “persistent vegetative state”
®
8. A Health Care POA allows you
to…
Name someone to be your “agent,” the person
who can make decisions about your medical
treatment and health care in the event you
become unable to participate in medical treatment
decisions, including:
Provide for residential care
Have access to your medical records
Employ health care personnel
Give or withhold consent to treatment
Refuse treatment contrary to your wishes

9. Financial Power of Attorney
Provides for your financial well-being in the
event of your inability to manage your financial
and business affairs because of disability or
incapacity, now or in the future
Can be done in anticipation of a future need,
for a special purpose, or for a limited time
®
10. A Financial POA allows you
to…
Name someone as your “agent” giving them the
power to manage your financial affairs, including
the ability to:
Pay your bills, deposit checks, and deal with banks on
your behalf
Sell, manage, or reinvest your property
Sign contracts, borrow money, or change investments
on your behalf
Pursue insurance claims and legal actions to enforce
your rights
File tax returns, obtain insurance coverage, or apply
for government benefits for you
Transfer property to your living trust
®
11. Who needs MyCare Plan®
Everyone; you don’t need to be rich to become
ill or injured, nor do you need to be wealthy to
provide for and protect your family’s financial
affairs
MyCare Plan® will put you in greater control of
the financial and health care decisions that
directly affect the lives of you and your family
It’s not enough to simply want to do the right
thing – you need to make sure it happens
