THe College Send-off
Before they leave for college, know the 6 documents families should consider
A plain-English guide from a lawyer mom of four breaking down the 6 documents parents should know about before college — what each one does, why it matters, and what to think through before your kid leaves home.

WHY IT MATTERS
Once your child becomes a legal adult, you generally no longer have the same automatic access to information or authority to make decisions on their behalf. Understanding these documents ahead of time can help you decide what makes sense for your family before you ever need them.
