Do a search for reputable legal advice online. There are plenty of sites, just stick with legal sites. You can also check the library for how-to books. Be aware they may be outdated for laws; however they're good for definitions or general circumstances to be aware.
While online, you can run a check for your Mom's state for legal requirements such as number of witnesses and/or a required notary and/or filing requirements.
This can easily be done for free. What also can be done for free is a living trust. This can also be done for free (though in my case I did pay an attorney to review it for anything I missed). There are books and information online for simple trusts.
If your parents' estates are complicated, I recommend you consult an attorney.
Lolarod, check out legalzoom.com or rocketlawyer.com. We had PoAs, Healthcare DIrectives, Living Wills and Last Wills drawn up for my MIL's state for a very reasonable price. She is low income and there was nothing to inherit, and no one is jostling to get control over her. If this is your situation, online forms should be ample. You can get higher-up help on those sites the more you pay. You will need to have a signed, notarized original for each of your parents and for each person who has a designated role. You will need to take your parents and 2 non-relative witnesses plus those named in roles -- with photo ID -- to a notary. Here in MN the bank notary would not/could not notarize the will, but the clerk at our town hall could. This all needs to get done before your parents have a medical diagnosis of incapacity in their medical files (so that it cannot be contested). Hope this helps.
I really recommend finding an elder care lawyer. Do it right because even if there isn’t much of an estate you need to make sure you have all the legal powers needed to care for them as they age. When even one legal power is missing it could put you in a world of hurt at some point Most lawyers will spend 30 min with you for free to give you their thoughts on your situation.
