Grandma had no legal authority to authorize medical care. This happens every day — hospitals need documentation, not just good intentions. The Family Protection Kit gives families the legal authority they actually need. Attorney-designed templates starting at $37.
If you're in an accident, hospitalized, or suddenly unavailable — there's a gap. Your will doesn't activate until it goes through probate. That takes days, sometimes weeks. Without the right documents, the people you trust most have zero legal authority to pick up your children from school, authorize medical treatment, or even prove they're supposed to be caring for them. The Emergency Guardianship Kit closes that gap.
Authorizes a trusted adult to care for your children immediately if you are unavailable due to illness, travel disruption, or emergency.
Why it matters:
Without written authorization, schools, hospitals, and authorities may be limited in who they can release a child to—even if the person is a close relative.
Allows your designated caregiver to make medical decisions and obtain treatment for your child in your absence.
Why it matters:
Medical providers often require written consent before treating a minor, even in urgent situations.
Documents your intent for a specific person to provide day-to-day care, including school, transportation, and routine decisions.
Why it matters:
This helps institutions rely on your instructions rather than default procedures.
A practical, centralized document that outlines essential information about your child: routines, allergies, medications, schools, and emergency contacts.
Why it matters:
Support your caregivers in preventing problems before they arise.
A written statement that explains your wishes, values, and preferences regarding your child’s care.
Why it matters:
While not a substitute for a will, this document provides important context and guidance that courts and caregivers often consider.
