Description
Many people are unprepared to deal with the legal and financial consequences of a serious illness such as Alzheimer's disease. Legal and medical experts encourage people recently diagnosed with a serious illness-particularly one that is expected to cause declining mental and physical health-to examine and update their financial and health care arrangements as soon as possible. Basic legal and financial instruments, such as a will, a living trust, and advance directives, are available to ensure that the person's late-stage or end-of-life health care and financial decisions are carried out.
Laws vary by State, and changes in situation-for instance, a divorce, relocation, or death in the family-can influence how documents are prepared and subsequently maintained.
Please join us as Frank Dana,III of Dana Law Firm shares helpful information on getting your legal house in order. Mr. Dana is a member of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys, American Bar Association, and the SC Bar Association.
Registration starts at 11:45am
Complimentary Lunch/Donations accepted for the Alzheimer's Association Haven Memory Walk Team.
