- - AFTER DEATH FORMS - -

Form 1. Will (Standard) - a Will (also called "Last Will And Testament") lets person control things after their death like who gets their money and property, who is Executor, and allowing helpful legal options later.

Form 2. Will (Guardian) - Will with part added to name someone as Guardian to care for minor child under 18 if needed (like if no parent is available) and also if needed manage their money and property.

Form 3. California Statutory Will - the state legislature put this Will into statute law for people to find and use if they want, and it is inflexible and bit hard to use but is well known by judges.

Form 4. Handwritten Will - this Will skips the usual need for 2 witnesses which saves time and work, but it must be all handwritten by person doing the Will (so no use of typing, computers, or legal forms).

Form 5. Tangible Personal Property List - lets person easily outside Will write more gifts to occur

after death of "tangible personal property" like furniture, jewelry, vehicles, art, electronics, tools, and clothes.

- - HEALTH CARE FORMS - -

Form 6. Advance Health Care Directive - in case they're incapacitated later lets person name someone as Agent to control health care, give health care instructions, and maybe do serious step of saying later stop care if incapacitated and bad health likely won't improve (this part is often called doing a "Living Will") - - this form also can give Agent power over bodily remains and funeral, burial, cremation, and related issues.

Form 7. Physician Orders For Life-Sustaining Treatment - does serious act of saying immediately from now on do not try certain health care listed (this is sometimes called the "Do Not Resuscitate" form).

- - GIVING POWER FORMS - -
