What's Included

Young adults need a plan too.

Turning 18 means new freedoms—but also new responsibilities. If an emergency occurs, your parents or loved ones don’t automatically have the right to help.
Here’s what happens without legal documents in place:

  • Your parent or guardian may not be able to access your medical records.
  • They can’t make healthcare decisions for you if you’re unable to.
  • Your bank accounts, car, or other assets could be left in limbo.
    With a Young Adult Plan, you decide who can step in if you ever need them.

Everything you need. Nothing you don’t.

A legal document that outlines your medical preferences if you're unable to communicate them yourself. It includes:

  • Life-sustaining treatment preferences (e.g., ventilators, feeding tubes).
  • Pain management and comfort care choices.
  • Religious or personal values regarding end-of-life care.
  • Designation of a healthcare agent (someone who makes medical decisions on your behalf).

Why it matters: If you don’t document your preferences, doctors or courts may decide for you, potentially against your wishes.

This document allows your chosen representatives to access your medical records and discuss your healthcare with doctors.

  • Ensures your family or appointed decision-makers can get critical medical information.
  • Complies with federal privacy laws so providers can legally share details about your care.

Why it matters: Without this, even close family members may be denied access to your medical information in an emergency.

A Power of Attorney (POA) allows you to appoint someone to manage your financial or legal affairs if you become incapacitated.

  • Make financial transactions (pay bills, file taxes, manage investments).
  • Handle property and legal matters on your behalf.
  • Avoid costly court intervention by pre-selecting a trusted agent.

Why it matters: Without a POA, your family may need court approval to handle your affairs, causing delays and expenses.

A legally binding document that outlines:

  • Who inherits your assets—including money, property, and personal belongings.
  • Who will take care of your minor children or pets by naming a legal guardian.
  • Who will manage your affairs after you pass (your executor).
  • Your final arrangements, such as burial or cremation preferences.

Why it matters: Without a Will, state laws decide what happens to your assets and dependents, which may not align with your wishes.

No. Once you turn 18, HIPAA laws prevent parents or legal guardians from accessing your medical records without authorization. That’s why it’s important to have legal documents in place so that your parents or guardians can step in and help if anything were to happen.

Yes! Our documents are state-specific and attorney-approved.

While most states will honor a will that was legally executed in another state, it’s still a good idea to review and update your plan when you move.

Here’s why:

  • State laws can vary. Different states have different requirements when it comes to things like witnessing a will, naming executors, and handling health care decisions.
  • Life changes often come with new responsibilities. You might open a new bank account, sign a lease, or take on student loans in your new state—all of which could affect your financial picture and estate plan.

If you're a Trust & Will member, here's what to do:

Log into your account and update your personal information—especially your address and state of residence.

Review your plan to make sure it still reflects your current wishes and life circumstances.

Re-sign your documents to ensure they're valid in your new state. When you update your state in your account, Trust & Will will generate updated, state-specific documents for you to print and sign.

Check your estate inventory. Keeping your inventory up to date with any new accounts, student loans, or belongings ensures your plan reflects the full picture.

You can add prepaid legal services to your plan for just $299 and receive personalized attorney support. Find out more about Trust & Will’s Attorney Support here.
