Michael Jackson's Death - Why YOU Need Your Estate Planning Documents in Order
Posted On 6/29/2009
The sudden death of Michael Jackson serves as a reminder to everyone that, no matter your age, you need to have your estate planning in order. The pop superstar died on Thursday, June 25th at 50 years old. The media is speculating as to how his estate will be handled and the future of his young children. No public statement has been made in regard to his personal planning and the media and the nation will wait anxiously to see how this unfolds. If Michael Jackson prepared a Trust the public will most likely never know the details as it will be held private, however, if he had a Will it becomes part of public record. In the state of California, a Will needs to be presented within 30 days. Jackson's assets, royalties and the amount of debt he had accumulated most likely will lead to lengthy battles over his estate.

North Carolina Updates Health Care Documents
Posted On 5/8/2008
Late last year, North Carolina adopted new statutory health care documents. We strongly recommend updating your health care documents to reflect the most recent statutory versions and obtaining the new HIPPA form. If you choose to keep your existing documents, they will still work, but in our opinion not as effectively as the new documents. We believe the new documents are more specific and will make it easier for your loved ones and physicians to make the right health care decisions for you.
For more information or if you would like to update your existing health care documents to reflect the recent changes in the law, please call our office at (336) 547-9999 or request an appointment online and we will be happy to update your documents.
