The start of a new year brings a fresh perspective — making it the perfect time to revisit your power of attorney (POA).

As a reminder, a POA is a simple legal document that allows someone you trust to make financial decisions on your behalf if you’re unable to.

If your life changed in 2025, whether from marriage, divorce, new family members, or health shifts, you should think about revisiting who you want to handle important matters if you’re unable to.

For assistance starting or reviewing your POA document or other estate planning documents, give us a call. We’re here to help ensure your wishes are protected and your family’s future secured.

The Thanksgiving season reminds us to express gratitude, but it’s also the perfect time to show it through action.

One of the most impactful ways to care for your loved ones is by having a solid estate plan in place. It not only ensures your wishes are honored, but also offers peace of mind for those you care about most.

An estate plan may include:

✅ A will to guide asset distribution and name guardians
✅ A revocable living trust to avoid probate
✅ Financial and health care powers of attorney
✅ A living will for end-of-life preferences
✅ Beneficiary designations

If you haven’t reviewed your plan lately or haven’t started, there’s no better time than now. Your future self (and your family) will thank you.

Not everything that holds value is listed on a bank statement or investment portfolio. While your estate plan may cover financial accounts like IRAs, 401(k)s, or annuities, it’s just as important to consider the sentimental items — things like family heirlooms, handwritten letters, photo albums, and recipe books.

Estate planning is often a challenging process. But for those whose assets span multiple countries, navigating estate planning becomes even more intricate — yet it remains just as vital.

Here are a few key considerations for expats and individuals with international connections to keep in mind:

✅ Understand Tax Obligations: Estate planning for expats requires navigating complex tax systems and avoiding double taxation by understanding inheritance laws and tax treaties.

✅ Cross-Border Legal Nuances: U.S. wills and trusts may not be recognized internationally, which may require separate wills, a situs will, or an international will to ensure your wishes are upheld across jurisdictions.

✅ Guardianship and Power of Attorney: U.S. powers of attorney may not be valid abroad, so it can be necessary to appoint local agents or guardians. Working with a notary public can also help authenticate documents, increasing their acceptance internationally and ensuring compliance with local guardianship laws.

If you’re an expat or own assets abroad, our team is here to help you navigate these complexities with ease. Reach out to get started!
