Attorney Heidi Webb has been competently and capably handling my estate planning needs for several years. Her staff is efficient, helpful, and always friendly. I highly recommend the law office of Heidi Webb!

My father lived in Daytona Beach for years and passed away in December. My family lives in West Virginia and we needed a lawyer to assist us with his estate. I did a Google search for lawyers in Daytona and started calling. The first two offices I called I had to leave a voicemail, neither returned my call. I called Heidi’s office and a real live person answered the phone. I told her what I needed and she promptly scheduled me a phone call with Heidi. Knowing we were not from the area, in fact 700 miles away she went above and beyond in assisting us. We were kept well informed and she collaborated with our realtor to make sure everything was in line. A+++

ASK HEIDI: Do I need to select a Power of Attorney for financial matters and another for health care, or can the same person do both?

Short Answer: While it’s two different documents/roles it can be the same person wearing both hats.

The document for handling financial matters is called a Durable Power of Attorney and the Health Care Surrogate Designation is for healthcare decisions when you are unable but there’s an expectation of survival.

I usually approach it from the perspective that they are very different roles and often different loved ones might be better suited for one rather than the other. I tell my client’s that they shouldn’t feel it HAS to be the same person but it absolutely can be.
