New Bar Program Provides Wills to Firefighters

Firefighters put their lives on the line every day to protect their communities, yet national statistics show too few of them have taken all the necessary steps to ensure the future of their loved ones should anything happen to them. A new program by the Young Lawyers Division of the Franklin County Bar Association will help ease that burden.

Through the Florian Project, attorneys will provide basic estate-planning documents -- simple wills, powers of attorney and living wills or medical directives -- to local firefighters at no cost to them. Firefighters interested in the program should talk with their chief. Additional information also is available by clicking on the Contact FCBA link on the left side of this page.
