Corbin Wills & Power of Attorney Lawyers

You don’t need a complicated estate plan to protect your family. You just need the right paperwork in place.

At Freeman Childers, we help Corbin residents get their essential legal documents drafted, signed, and finalized quickly. Whether you live in downtown, Master Street, Woodbine, or Lily, we make the process easy.

Document 1: The Last Will & Testament Decide Who Gets What. Avoid the Fighting.

If you pass away without a Will in Kentucky, the state decides who inherits your property—not you. This often leads to family arguments and confusion. We draft clear, legally binding Wills that allow you to:

• Name Your Heirs: Specifically state who gets your home, land, and vehicles.

• Name a Guardian: Choose exactly who will raise your children if something happens to you.

• Name an Executor: Appoint a trusted person to handle your affairs so the court doesn't appoint a stranger.

Document 2: Power of Attorney (POA) The Most Important Document You Can Own.

A Will only helps your family after you die. A Power of Attorney protects you while you are still alive. If you are injured in an accident on Cumberland Falls Highway or suffer a medical emergency, who pays your mortgage? Who talks to the insurance company? Who manages your bank account?

Without a Power of Attorney, your family is frozen. We draft Durable Powers of Attorney that give a trusted loved one the legal authority to handle your business immediately, without needing to go to court for guardianship.

"Can't I Just Use an Online Template?"

You can, but it is risky. Corbin presents a unique challenge because it sits in three counties. Depending on where your house sits, your Will may need to be probated in Williamsburg (Whitley), London (Laurel) or Barbourville (Knox).

• If you use a generic template that lists the wrong jurisdiction, it causes delays.

• If the witnessing requirements aren't met perfectly, the judge can throw it out.

For a fee comparable to many online services, you get the peace of mind of sitting down with a real attorney right here on Main Street who ensures it is done right the first time.
