Incapacity Planning & Substitute Decision-making Virtual Workshop Series 2025

Many people want to live independently in their homes for as long as possible, however they do not have the resources to do so.

This workshop provides a sample procedure to help you screen/decide if a professional or substitute decision maker should be contacted before instructions are taken to transfer an interest in real estate – in order to help reduce liability for legal professionals and realtors.
