Sending your child off to college is a proud and emotional milestone, but many parents miss one crucial step. Once your child turns 18, you're no longer automatically allowed to access their medical or financial information, even if you’re still paying the bills. That means in an emergency, you could be sidelined when they need you most. Today, Scott talks with Estate Planning Attorney Connor Kelley to discuss the essential legal documents every young adult should have before leaving home.
Here’s what we cover in this episode:
🧑🎓 Your legal role changes when your child turns 18
📃 Why powers of attorney matter for college-bound kids
🏦 How a financial POA helps with tuition and banking emergencies
🏥 Why a healthcare POA gives you access in medical crises
🛑 The risks of DIY legal forms and what could go wrong
