Wednesday, April 13, 2011 The 3 Key Documents Every Graduating Senior Needs
Did You Know...
Now that your graduating senior is "legally" an adult, you can no longer make important medical or financial decisions on his or her behalf?
Your graduating s enior may still be your baby, but in the eyes of the law he or she is now an ADULT!
That means you can no longer make important medical or financial decisions for your child without their permission.
But let’s face it….your job of being a PARENT doesn’t stop just because your child turns 18. If there’s a medical emergency or your child asks for financial help, you NEED the ability to cut through the legal red tape and get involved.
-
FACT: Doctors, hospitals or financial institutions will NOT bend the rules on this! It’s against privacy laws. You must have 3 KEY DOCUMENTS in place to make important medical or financial decisions on your child’s behalf (just imagine the nightmare of your child getting hurt hundreds of miles away at school and the hospital refuses to give you so much as a status update!).
My name is Kim Hegwood and I am an estate planning attorney from Houston, TX.
I call these 3 key documents the Parent Sanity Protection Kit, as they give you the legal permission you need to HELP your child and avoid more gray at the same time!
-
Advance Health Care Directive
-
Financial Power of Attorney
-
HIPAA Forms
This Parent Sanity Kit is normally $350, but to ensure your child is protected before the summer or college starts, you can now receive this critical kit for just $150 when you call (281) 218-0880 and schedule your appointment by June 15th.
BONUS- Graduation Gift for YOU: Mention this page and receive a FREE Lifetime Legacy Planning Session (normally $750) to go over YOUR will, trust or other legal documents! Having an “adult” child is a huge life-change for mom or dad too and your estate planning documents must be updated accordingly! |
