When Should I Talk to A Lawyer About Writing a Living Will?

A living will defines your wishes for your medical treatment and quality of life concerns, safeguarding your choices. We all ask the question, “At what point in life does one need to think about a living will?” But this question is subjective, and the answer varies for each person. Your living will names your medical power of attorney, the person who will make medical decisions on your behalf should you become unable to do so, in the event of:

• serious injury
• terminal illness
• debilitation
• incapacitation

… or experience any other circumstance that prevents you from making a medical decision. Your living will also gives your specific requests regarding certain “extraordinary measures” such as heart resuscitation, tube feeding, or mechanical ventilation. It can also state your thoughts on organ donation, pain management, and other serious end-of-life decisions that may arise.

At DeRiso Law Group, we believe a living will is the ultimate responsibility and a vital document for any mother, father, or spouse. Imagine how much easier your loved ones will rest knowing that they are authorized without question to speak on your behalf should you become incapacitated.
