We receive many requests to prepare a “Living Will”. This is not a will; not sure why its named that!
Interpretation – The document known as “living will” is an “Advanced Directive” which really needs to be in your complete estate plan.
The Advanced Directive talks about end-of-life care decisions should you become incapacitated and not able to communicate those decisions.
For instance – What is your preference on life-sustaining treatments?
This document provides a lot of peace of mind to your family by removing these difficult choices out of their hands. Its already stressful enough.
