Answer to Question 1

A will takes effect upon death and is only one document in a comprehensive estate plan. A living will (or comparable state form) and power of attorney should also be prepared. However, paralegals cannot give legal advice or tell people what documents should be drafted. Therefore, the supervising attorney should discuss the need for additional forms with the client.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
