At Stenos Legal, we specialise in a range of estate planning services to help you plan for the future and protect your loved ones.
Our goal is to provide clear, compassionate, and comprehensive legal advice, ensuring that your wishes are respected. Below, you’ll find more detailed information about each of the services we offer.
Wills
A Will is one of the most important legal documents you’ll ever create. It allows you to specify how your assets and property should be distributed after your death.
At Stenos Legal, we assist you in drafting a clear and legally binding Will that reflects your wishes.
We take the time to understand your unique circumstances and ensure that all your concerns are addressed.
Why You Need a Will: Without a Will, your estate may be distributed according to state laws, which might not align with your wishes. A Will provides peace of mind, knowing that your loved ones are cared for and your estate is handled according to your instructions.
Our Process: We offer consultations to discuss your estate planning needs, followed by the drafting and review of your Will. We ensure all legal requirements are met and provide guidance on appointing executors and guardians.
Power of Attorney
A Power of Attorney (POA) is a crucial document that grants someone you trust the authority to manage your financial and legal affairs. This can be particularly important if you are unable to do so yourself due to illness, injury, or other circumstances.
Types of Power of Attorney: We offer assistance with different types of POAs, including General, Enduring, and Limited POAs, each tailored to your specific needs and situations.
Choosing an Attorney: We guide you through the process of selecting a suitable attorney, ensuring they understand their responsibilities and your expectations.
Appointment of Enduring Guardian
An Appointment of Enduring Guardian allows you to designate someone to make personal, lifestyle, and medical decisions on your behalf if you lose the capacity to do so. This document ensures that your personal preferences are respected, even when you’re unable to communicate them.
Scope of Authority: The scope of an Enduring Guardian’s authority can include decisions about medical treatment, living arrangements, and other personal matters.
Importance of Planning: By appointing an Enduring Guardian, you ensure that someone you trust will make decisions in your best interest, reflecting your values and wishes.
