WHAT IS AN ADVANCE DIRECTIVE?

An Advance Directive allows you to legalize your desires regarding medical treatments and end of life procedures in situations when you are unable to make decisions on your own.

HOW MUCH IS AN ADVANCE DIRECTIVE?

We charge $250 for an Advance Directive.

ADVANCE DIRECTIVE VS HEALTHCARE PROXY

An Advance Directive allows you to express your wishes regarding medical care and end of life treatment decisions.  A Healthcare Proxy on the other hand appoints an individual to make those decisions for you.

ADVANCE DIRECTIVE VS LAST WILL

A Last Will allows you to express your desires regarding assets, dependents and pets.  An Advance Directive allows you to express your desires regarding medical care and end of life treatment decisions.

DO I NEED AN ATTORNEY TO DRAFT AN ADVANCE DIRECTIVE?

Legally, no. However, in order for an Advance Directiev to be legally valid, it has to follow the exact specifications of the law. Failure to follow the exact statutory requirements will result in doctors and hospitals not accepting the Advance Directive.

Is the small amount of money you may save worth the risk of not having a valid Advance Directive?
