- Power of Attorney appoints a person to handle your financial affairs if you are unable or unwilling to do so yourself.
- Health Care Power of Attorney appoints a person to make medical decisions on your behalf if you are unable to make them yourself.
- Living Will or Declaration of Desire for a Natural Death allows you to make end of life choices according to your own wishes.
