Happy National Estate Planning Awareness Week!
.
Throughout this week, we want to highlight 7 reasons why you should create an estate plan.
.
Day One - Reason #1: Control Over Asset Distribution
An estate plan allows you to decide exactly how your assets are distributed upon your death. This ensures your property goes to the beneficiaries you choose and aligns with your wishes.
.
Without a plan, the state decides how your assets are divided, which might not match your goals. A thorough estate plan helps guarantee that all your assets are accounted for and appropriately provided for, according to your wishes.

Healthcare Power of Attorney in Wisconsin: What You Need to Know

Did you know that Wisconsin is not explicitly a next-of-kin state when it comes to making healthcare decisions? Instead, Wisconsin law allows individuals to designate a healthcare agent through a Power of Attorney for Healthcare instrument.


Key Points:
🔹"Next-of-kin" refers to a person's closest living relatives, such as a spouse, parents, adult children, or siblings. While they may have a role in decision-making in the absence of a designated healthcare agent, Wisconsin law gives priority to a formally designated healthcare agent.
🔹The healthcare agent, if formally designated, has the legal authority to make medical decisions for the "principal" (i.e. you).
🔹This designation must be made by someone of sound mind who is at least 18 years old.
🔹The agent must act in good faith and follow the principal's wishes, or, if no specific directives exist, make decisions in the principal's best interest.
🔹This power can be revoked at any time by the principal.

By designating a healthcare agent, you ensure that someone you trust is empowered to make healthcare decisions if you're unable to. It's an important step in protecting your autonomy and providing clear guidance to your loved ones.


Don't wait for an emergency to get this in place—plan ahead for peace of mind. At Levine Eisberner LLC, we make it easy to set up Powers of Attorney by offering a flat-fee service. Contact us today to discuss your options!
