regardless of the person's wishes. Wills give a person the power to decide what will happen to his or her belongings. They also give direction for the guardianship of minor children.
Other methods may also be used to direct what happens to a person's estate when s/ he dies. It is important to consult a knowledgeable attorney about these items. 14. If I have questions about HIV/AIDS and the law, or if I need legal assistance in this area, how can I find an attorney who will help me?
The Columbus AIDS Task Force has a Pro Bono Legal Panel. Legal professionals (attorneys, paralegals, and law clerks) participate in this project. Persons with HIV-related legal issues may obtain a free consultation with a lawyer under this program; other services may be obtained at very low cost. Contact the Columbus AIDS Task Force at 4882437 for more information, or to set up an appointment with an attorney.
