Maryland law may already have the answer for you.
About this Event

If illness or an accident left you unable to make your own decisions, would your family have the legal authority to step in?

Join us to find out.

You probably already know who you'd want to help you.

Your spouse. Your daughter. Your sister. Someone you trust.

But here's a different question:

Would that person actually have the legal authority to act for you?

If an unexpected illness, accident, or other event left you unable to make your own decisions, the people closest to you may not automatically have the authority to manage your finances or make certain decisions on your behalf.

And when the right planning isn't in place, the court may become involved.



You'll walk away knowing:

1. Who can speak with your doctors if you can't speak for yourself.

2. Who can legally manage your finances if you're unable to do it yourself.

3. When the court may become involved and adult guardianship may become necessary.




This workshop is for you if...

You've been meaning to create a Power of Attorney but haven't gotten around to it.

You assumed your spouse or children could automatically step in.

You've heard the term "adult guardianship" but aren't exactly sure what it means.

Or you simply want to make sure the people you trust can help you if something unexpected happens.
