Attorneys for Living Wills
Why is a living will a gift to you and your family? It sets your mind at rest to know that you have given written instructions about your medical care. For your family, a living will means they will not have to agonize — and maybe even argue — about how your health care should be managed.

• Advance Healthcar Directive
  Your advance health care directive has two parts. The first part you name an agent who will be responsible for making your health care decisions in the event you are not capable. In the second part, you have a living will which states your wishes in certain situations, including end of life decisions, independent living decision, pain management, religious or spiritual requests, and any other wish you want to document so it is clear for your loved ones in the future.
• Durable Power of Attorney
  By having a durable power of attorney, you can select the person you want to handle medical day-to-day living decisions for you if you are unable to do that for yourself. You will save your family and yourself the expense and emotion of establishing a conservatorship.
• Estate Planning
  An advance health care directive and durable powers of attorney is an essential part of your estate plan along with a will and trusts.
