🎓Heading to college? Don’t forget this important item on your back-to-campus checklist!

Once a child turns 18, they are legally an adult, which means that parents no longer automatically have the authority to access medical information or make healthcare and financial decisions on their behalf.

Before your student heads to campus, consider putting these important documents in place:

✔️ Healthcare Power of Attorney
✔️ HIPAA Authorization
✔️ Financial Power of Attorney

Estate planning isn’t just for retirees or those with a lot of assets. For college students, estate planning is about being prepared for the unexpected and giving both students and parents peace of mind.

Read our latest blog to learn more about why every college student should have Powers of Attorney before leaving for campus ➡️ https://bit.ly/4xuTTqt

Want to create your Powers of Attorney documents before you're off to college? Contact the Friedman Schuman Layser, PC estate planning team today: https://bit.ly/49agWe8

Have you created your will? 📝

August is National Make-A-Will Month, making it the perfect time to prioritize your estate plan!

A will allows you to decide how your assets should be distributed, name guardians for minor children, and provide guidance for your family during difficult times. Without a valid estate plan, your wishes may not be followed, and decisions about your assets and loved ones may be left to Pennsylvania’s intestacy laws.

Don’t wait for the unexpected. Take the first step toward protecting your future today.

Clear communication between patients and healthcare providers is essential to receiving quality medical care.🏥 However, because many doctors’ appointments last only 15 to 20 minutes, patients may leave feeling that their questions went unanswered or their concerns were not fully addressed.

Whether you are attending an appointment for yourself or accompanying a loved one, preparation can help you make the most of your time with a healthcare provider.

A commercial lease isn't just paperwork. It is one of the most important agreements your business may sign.📝

Unlike residential leases, commercial leases are often negotiable and can include complex terms related to rent increases, maintenance responsibilities, security deposits, renewal options, permitted use of the property, and more.🏢 The details matter, and overlooking them can lead to costly issues down the road.

Before signing a commercial lease, it's important to understand your rights, obligations, and potential risks. Having an experienced real estate attorney review the agreement can help ensure the lease reflects the terms you negotiated and protects your business interests in the long and short term.

Whether you're opening a new location, relocating, or renewing an existing lease, Friedman Schuman Layser real estate attorneys are here to help businesses across Pennsylvania confidently navigate commercial leasing.

Estate planning isn’t just for the elderly or those with significant assets.📝 If you’re in your 20s, you may already have assets like real estate, savings accounts, retirement accounts, a profitable business, or even family responsibilities that need to be considered.

Think of planning your estate early as a way to gain control over the unexpected. While it’s not fun to imagine worst-case scenarios and what will happen when you pass, the reality is that accidents, illnesses, and the unforeseen can happen at any time. Having an estate plan in place makes sure your assets, health care decisions, and family members are properly taken care of if you’re unable to make decisions yourself, regardless of your age.

When creating an estate plan, it's easy to focus on major assets like your home, retirement accounts, or life insurance policies. But what about the things that are often overlooked?

Digital assets such as online banking accounts, cryptocurrency, email accounts, and digital photos are becoming an increasingly important part of estate planning.💰 Family heirlooms, sentimental belongings, and even provisions for the care of your pets are also details that shouldn't be forgotten.🐶

A comprehensive estate plan is about more than distributing financial assets, it's about ensuring your wishes are clearly documented and protecting the people and things that matter most to you.

Working with an experienced estate planning attorney can help you identify assets that may otherwise be overlooked and create a plan that provides peace of mind for both you and your loved ones.

If you're ready to start or update your estate plan, the estate planning attorneys at Friedman Schuman Layser are here to help.📝
