Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
The Tennessee estate planning and administration attorneys at Hunter, Smith & Davis, LLP help individuals and families protect their futures.
Wills
Living Wills are a declaration of how far an individual wishes his or her physician and hospital to go in prolonging life by artificial means if there is no reasonable expectation of recovery from an illness. The condition must be terminal, although death need not be imminent.
Trusts
The term â€œpour-overâ€ simply means that the Will pours probate property into a revocable living trust. The Will is the appropriate document to designate guardians for any minor children. A Will is exposed to the probate process. A Will may be amended or changed through the execution of a codicil. As an example, assets may have inadvertently been left in the name of the testator or testatrix, or assets may intentionally have been left outside the trust.
Power of Attorney
This power of attorney is separate from the regular durable power of attorney (POA) because Tennessee has adopted specific legislation recognizing this type of power of attorney and setting forth certain requirements for their execution. Hunter, Smith & Davis, LLP helps individuals and their families protect their ability to make crucial medical decisions with the preparation of official HCPOA documents.
