Living Wills
A
living will is a written document that may be vaild in most states to express
your desires regarding the use of life-sustaining procedures on yourself.
It supports your right to determine if extraordinary means should be
used to maintain your life (i.e. prolonged life support systems), or
if you wish a natural death. A living will should always be used in
conjuction with a durable power of attorney for health care.
Despite the similar names, a "living will" is not the same as a conventional
"will" or "living trust". Wills tend to be used for designating how assets should be allocated after a
person's death. "Living trusts" are estate planning procedures used
to transfer property without probate court after death.
A living will can be completed painlessly in 3 steps via your internet
connection with LegalZoom,
the company co-founded by Robert Shapiro which has helped over 1 million
satisfied customers prepare legal documents quickly and efficiently...
