"WHY DO I NEED A WILL, OR TRUST, OR POWER OF ATTORNEY?"

"WHAT HAPPENS IF I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING IN PLACE AT ALL?"

From wills, to trusts and everything in between, this book provides the groundwork so you can understand the basics. Should you make a plan for yourself? Do you need a lawyer? What is a living will? All of these questions and more are answered inside.
