🎓 BEFORE THEY LEAVE HOME…

You’ve bought the bedding.

You’ve packed the mini fridge.

You’ve stocked up on school supplies.

You’ve probably had the conversation about laundry more than once.

You’re checking off everything on the college checklist.

But there’s one important item that almost never makes the list.

The legal documents your child may need once they turn 18.

This surprises many parents, but once your child becomes a legal adult, you no longer automatically have the legal authority to:

✔ Speak with their healthcare providers

✔ Access their medical information

✔ Make healthcare decisions if they’re unable to speak for themselves

✔ Help manage financial matters

✔ Access certain educational information

No one likes to think about an emergency happening while their child is away at school.

The good news is that a few simple legal documents can help ensure the people they trust are able to step in if the unexpected happens.

That’s why Legacy Law Group offers our College Peace of Mind Package, designed specifically for young adults heading off to college, trade school, military service, or simply beginning life as an independent adult.

The package includes:

✔ Durable Financial Power of Attorney

✔ Healthcare Power of Attorney

✔ HIPAA Authorization

✔ Living Will (Advance Directive)

✔ FERPA Authorization

Our hope is that these documents are never needed.

But if they ever are, you’ll be thankful they’re already in place.

As you prepare for this exciting next chapter, let us help you check one more important item off the move-in checklist and send your student off with confidence.

📞 Contact Legacy Law Group today to learn more or schedule your student’s College Peace of Mind Package before the fall semester begins.

Father’s Day can bring up a lot of memories, especially of the people who helped shape who we are.

In honor of Father’s Day, our very own Lindsay Weiss Hinson shared a personal reflection on her dad, the lessons he left behind, and what legacy really means.

It is a reminder that legacy is about so much more than what we leave behind financially. It is also found in the values we pass on, the way we care for our families, and the impact we continue to have long after we are gone.

By Lindsay Weiss Hinson, Director of Client Engagement This week marks fifteen years since my dad passed away. As I reflect on that milestone, I keep coming back to this photograph. When I look at it now, I see more than a father dancing with his daughter. I see the beginning of a legacy that […]

*WHY DOES ESTATE + TRUST ADMINISTRATION TAKE SO LONG? 🕰️* {new blog post }

When someone passes away, families are often surprised by how much goes into the estate or trust administration process.

It can involve probate, creditor claims, real estate, tax matters, appraisals, attorney coordination, CPA work, and more. That is one reason the process often takes longer than people expect.

In our newest blog post, we break down what affects the timeline, the complexity, and the cost, along with what families can expect along the way.

Who really inherits in Tennessee if something happens to you?

Most families think they know. Many do not.

For married business owners and successful families, one bad assumption can create confusion, delay, and expensive problems for the people you love most.

Our latest blog breaks down why this issue is more complicated than it seems and what smart planning can do to help prevent a mess later.

Read it here: https://legacylawtn.com/blog/the-estate-planning-mistake-entrepreneurs-make-when-success-changes-th…

There is a certain kind of entrepreneur who does a lot of things right. They work hard. They take risks. They build something from scratch when most people are still talking about someday. They stay up too late, wake up too early, pour money back into the business, hire carefully, fix problems fast,...
