Frequently Asked Questions
What documents are included in a basic estate plan in Gladstone?
A basic estate plan typically includes a last will and testament, a durable power of attorney for finances, a healthcare power of attorney, and a living will. Missouri law recognizes these documents and requires specific signing formalities, such as two witnesses for a will.
