Don't have a will? The Tennessee intestacy statutes direct how your property is distributed to family members in the event of your death. You need a will if you desire to direct where your property goes after your departure.
A power of attorney is an instrument granting someone authority to act as agent or attorney-in-fact for the grantor. There are four main types of powers of attorney (1) Limited, (2) General, (3) Durable, and (4) Springing. A power of attorney can be an effective estate planning tool and critical in the event of a loved one's sudden incapacity.
