Guardianship can happen to anyone

a The SENIOR too ill to care for himself

a The MINOR whose parents are deceased or incapacitated

a The MENTALLY ILL

a The DEVELOPMENTALLY DISABLED ADULT

a The comatose ACCIDENT VICTIM

The general public knows and understands that Probate is a good thing to avoid because of the inconvenience and high legal cost. THE PURPOSE of Guardian Angel Guardian Devil is to make the general public aware that a guardianship is even more expensive and time consuming than Probate. The good news is that guardianship is easier to avoid than Probate. This book explains how every competent adult can take steps to avoid guardianship WITHOUT PAYING EXPENSIVE LEGAL FEES.

A Will is Not Enough

By Amelia E. Pohl, Esq.

Many people who have a Will think that they have their affairs in order. Should they die, then their property will go to the people they have named in their Will.
But it isn't all that simple.

1. What will your beneficiaries inherit?
2. How will your property be transferred?
3. Can you (should you) avoid Probate?

We devoted a chapter to each of these issues. Once you read chapters 1 though 3, you will have an understanding of what will happen to your property should your die, with or without a Will.

Chapter 4 explains what a well drafted Will can do.

The rest of the book deals with things that a Will cannot do and why a Will is not enough. The book explains how to:

CHAPTER 5. MANAGE YOUR PERSONAL DEBT

CHAPTER 6. LIMIT YOUR BUSINESS DEBT

CHAPTER 7. PROVIDE FOR A MINOR CHILD

PROVIDE FOR A DISABLED PERSON

CHAPTER 8. APPOINT SOMEONE TO MAKE YOUR HEALTH CARE DECISIONS IN THE EVENT YOU ARE TOO ILL TO DO SO

CHAPTER 9. APPOINT SOMEONE TO MANAGE YOUR FINANCES IN THE EVENT YOU CAN'T

CHAPTER 10. A MEDICAID QUALIFYING PLAN

This chapter explains how to qualify for MEDICAID

CHAPTER 11. PROTECT THE HOMESTEAD when on MEDICAID

CHAPTER 12. WHEN TO UPDATE YOUR ESTATE PLAN

The Medicaid Chapters (10 and 11) alone are worth the price of the book. These Chapters are COMPREHENSIVE. They tell: what property is exempt and does not count as an asset when applying for MEDICAID; the rights of the spouse of someone who is receiving MEDICAID benefits; how to legally spend-down so that the patient can qualify as quickly as possible for MEDICAID; how to protect the homestead once a person qualifies for MEDICAID and much, more.

Guiding Those Left Behind

by AMELIA E. POHL, ESQ.

This book is a must for those who have experienced or anticipate the loss of a loved one. It explains all of the legal and practical things that need to be done. In particular, the book discusses:

What needs to be done during the first week, answering questions such as: Is an autopsy necessary? Should we allow an anatomical gift?
How to notify public and private agencies of the death
How to locate the decedent's assets
What bill do (or do not) need to be paid
When Probate is (and is not) necessary
Whether you should consider a challenge to the Will
How to get possession of the decedent’s property
What are the legal rights of the surviving spouse and other family members

As you read the first six chapters, you will become aware of the many problems that can come up. With a bit of planning, most, if not all, of such problems can be avoided. The final chapters of the book suggests different methods of arranging your own finances so that your family will not be left with more problems than happy memories of you.

This book is an easy read. Legal concepts are explained in simple, everyday language. There is glossary in the book in the event you come across an unfamiliar term.

How To Defend Yourself Against Your Lawyer

The way to DEFEND YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR LAWYER is to avoid the problem in the first place by employing MR. RIGHT LAWYER.

How To Defend Yourself Against Your Lawyer is a book about the unhappy experiences people have with their lawyers, beginning with that of the author AMELIA E. POHL. She became involved in a law suit and was surprised at how many times she had been misled by attorneys who were supposed to be on her side. She wondered if she, a lawyer, could be taken, what chance does a person with no legal background have? This book is a result of those concerns.

The book is divided into chapters that cover the most common problems that take people to a lawyer: divorce, wills, probate, criminal, personal injury, starting a business, buying a house, etc. Each chapter contains an interesting short story about a person’s experience when they hired a lawyer for that given area of law. Each chapter explains how to find "Mr. Right Lawyer" for the job, and what to do, if you employed "Mr. Wrong."

What you need to know before you hire a lawyer to:

a buy a house	a get a divorce
a settle an estate	a prepare a will or trust
a file a lawsuit	a get a patent
a file for bankruptcy	a apply for Medicaid
a defend you in a criminal case

Sometime You Will Need A Lawyer and when you do
You’ll Be Happy You Read This Book

Beyond Grief to Acceptance and Peace

by AMELIA E. POHL with psychologist Dr. Barbara J. Simmonds

CONTENTS

Chapter 1: Grief Before Death

Most deaths are expected. Family members often begin to grieve their loss before the death occurs; although many do not recognize that the anger and sadness they are experiencing is all part of the grieving process.

Chapter 2: The Grieving Process

This section explains the grieving process and gives suggestions about how to help someone who has suffered a loss

Chapter 3: Helping a Child Through the Loss

Children do grief. Too often family members do not recognize that a child may be having difficulty accepting the loss. This section explains how to recognize when a child needs help to get past the grieving process.

Chapter 4: The Adult Orphan

Baby boomers have spent half a century with their parents. Now many find themselves suddenly "orphaned." Dealing with that loss may be difficult to do.

Chapter 5: Strategies to Cope with the Loss

Not everyone struggles with the loss of a family member, but for those who are experiencing difficulty, this section offers simple, practical, things to do that may help.

Chapter 6: The Problem Death

The sudden death, the violent death, the death of a child; these are all problem deaths. This section gives community resources that one can turn to for assistance in coming to terms with the loss.
