Book excerpt: Published by Davenport Press this book written by lawyers provides a quick discussion of the law and, also, a good range of North Carolina Wills and Estate Planning legal forms. Wills and Estate Planning forms deal with how a person can control upon illness or death their health care, property and money, children, and more. This book contains 8 ready to use legal forms which can be done in minutes (which also can be downloaded free), which are: 1) Last Will And Testament (lets one write orders to on death gift most property and money, pick guardians for children and their property, say if less burdensome legal procedures can be used, and pick a person to be executor to handle things after death); 2) Last Will And Testament (No Guardians) (this Will has no “Guardians” paragraph and is for people without children under 18 and not giving anything to other minors); 3) Self-Proving Affidavit (often done with a Will to avoid work after a death of showing a Will was signed correctly, and using this form increases the chance a Will is enforceable); 4) Health Care Power Of Attorney (lets person like spouse or friend be named to control health care and also be given instructions in case one cannot later control own health care); 5) Advance Directive For A Natural Death (“Living Will”) (lets one say if ever a serious medical condition occurs what extreme measures are wanted in which circumstances); 6) Do Not Resuscitate and M.O.S.T. (either of these 2 forms can be used if in very bad health to show paramedics and others not to try restarting the heart or breathing (called CPR) and other major actions, with the M.O.S.T. form having more details); 7) Durable Power Of Attorney (also called “Financial Power Of Attorney” lets power over money, property, and other matters be shared with a spouse or other very trusted person so they can act for a person); and 8) Authority To Consent To Health Care Of Minor (lets a parent or similar share with another person like relative, friend, or teacher power to control a child's health care). Filled out examples show how exactly to complete all the legal forms, and show how people can control what the legal forms say and do.
