Assisting Elders through our Community Legal Education outreach!
ATSILS’ Community Legal Education Team recently delivered a talk on Wills and Powers of Attorney for Elders at the Metro North Community and Oral Health Yarning Circle in Brighton.
The talk covered topics including: what is a Will?; what is a Beneficiary; what is an Executor; what can I put in my Will; what happens if I die without a Will; what is a Power of Attorney and Enduring Power of Attorney?; How to I set one up; Who should I choose to be my Attorney; How to revoke a Power of Attorney; and what to do if an Attorney acts improperly.
Many Elders attended and asked a lot of great questions which generated lots of great yarns about the importance of setting up these key legal documents.
