Silver City, NM (April 27, 2018) Could you or your family members benefit to know how your estate could avoid probate court? As a senior citizen, do you or your family wonder who will pay for your nursing home care in the future? Do you or your family members need assistance with “Powers of Attorney” and “Advanced Health Care Directives?”
