The presentation, which included ample time for questions from the audience, focused on the importance of planning in advance for disability, and methods for planning for your estate after your death. The presentation also included issues of guardianship, trusts, estate and gift planning, as well as explaining the differences between the various powers of attorney and medical directives and their applications and limitations. Ms. Whelan encouraged family members to think about and carefully plan for their estates — for both during their lifetime and after their death.
