Elder Law Services, a project of the Legal Aid Society of Hawaii, offers free legal advice for seniors who are ages 60 and over. Our team provides assistance with advance planning services and helps seniors who have been victims of crime.
What is Advance Planning?
Advance Planning is the process of developing a plan while you are alive to manage your healthcare and assets and provide for what will happen to you and your assets once you die. This plan may help avoid unnecessary taxes or probate and makes it easier for your loved ones to be informed of and carry out your wishes.
