<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a client that wants to name “a professional guardian” in her estate plan as an alternate to the one individual she’s named. I imagine without naming anyone specifically, a POA may not hold up but she is just adamant that she does
not want her children to be named and does not want anyone from any kind of assisted living facility to “be in charge of this”. Any thoughts aside from specifically naming an individual professional guardian and hoping they are able and willing at the time
of need? Or thoughts on how to exclude people from having any say whatsoever in the distribution of an estate or matters requiring a POA? Any sample language if anyone has done anything like this would be much appreciated!<o:p></o:p></p>
