This book provides in 3 areas about 10 ready-to-use Indiana legal forms to make binding legal documents, many of which are standard forms in the state or well known. - - AFTER DEATH FORMS - - Form 1. Will (Standard) - this Will lets a person control some things after their death like who gets their money and property, say who is Executor handling things, and letting some easier legal options be used later. This Form 1 is the most used Will in the book and it suits most people. Form 2. Will (Guardians) - Will with parts added to name person as Guardian of Person to care for minor child under 18 if needed (like if no parent is available), and also name person as Guardian of the Estate to if needed manage money and property of a child and spend this on them till 18.

Tangible Personal Property List - lets person easily outside a Will write more gifts to occur after death of "tangible personal property" like cars, furniture, jewelry, tools, and clothes. - - HEALTH CARE FORMS - - Form 5. Advance Directive - lets person name Health Care Representative like family member or friend to control health care if person is later incapacitated and also write health care instructions (this form is often called a "Health Care Power Of Attorney"). This Form 5 is often only health care form people use. Form 6. Living Will Declaration - does serious act of saying stop further health care if later doctors, think an incapacitated person's health is very bad and more care likely won't help. Form 7. Do Not Resuscitate - does serious act of saying immediately from now on do not try C.P.R. to restart heart or breathing, and this short form that can be read fast is often used outside hospitals or similar (also provided in book is similar P.O.S.T. form covering more treatments than just C.P.R.). - - GIVING POWER FORMS - - Form 8.
