We work with associates in related fields such as Financial Planning, Insurance Planning, Medicaid Planning, Real Estate Services, Veterans Benefits, and In-Home Health Care Services. Our team is dedicated to helping individuals secure the preparation of important documents like a Last Will & Testament, Living Will, Healthcare POA, Durable POA, Revocable Living Trust, Life Insurance Trust, Irrevocable Trust, Irrevocable Funeral Trust, Medicaid Planning, Guardianship, and Analysis of Financial Portfolio.

Digital Documentation

Digital Documentation is a service where your signature is digitally video recorded to provide evidence of sound mind and free will. This can be extremely beneficial if there is the possibility that questions will arise in the event of a will contest or extenuating circumstances where your wishes are questioned because of mental or physical illness. Documents that are eligible for this service include Living Wills, POAs, and Last Will and Testaments.

Mobile Notary Service

Our Mobile Notary provides a notary who travels to homes, businesses, hospitals, or other places to provide notary services. Many times, a Notary is needed for documents such as a Will, POA, or Trust, and sometimes the person who is signing is unable to travel. This is where a Mobile Notary comes into play.

Document Retrieval Services

Sometimes the occasion arises where you may need a copy of your deed, birth certificate, or other important legal documents. We offer a service where we can retrieve such documents and deliver them to you. We also offer personal and business courier services for the pickup, delivery, or filing of documents for all counties in Ohio.

VA Aid & Attendance Benefits

Looking for extra funds to help pay for caregiving services in your home, in an assisted living facility, or in a nursing home? Are you a veteran, spouse of a veteran, or widow of a veteran who served during a time of war? If so, you may qualify for an under-utilized and much misunderstood benefit known as Veteran's Aid and Attendance, Improved Pension, or Enhanced Pension. A similar, but slightly different benefit is known as a Housebound Pension. The funds provided by these benefit programs for veterans are often the difference between being able to afford to keep a frail elder at home and having to transfer them to a skilled nursing facility.
