A living will is a legal document that allows you to state your wishes regarding life-sustaining medical treatments in the event that you become incapacitated and unable to express your wishes. When someone becomes incapacitated due to injury or a mental disease such as Alzheimer’s, a living will can ensure that their wishes are upheld even when they can’t speak for themselves or make sound decisions.
At Hennis Legal Services, you can work with an experienced attorney to create a living will. Steve Hennis is an estate planning lawyer with over 28 years of experience helping clients create living wills and other documents/arrangements in the Wayne County, OH, area.
Your Living Will is a means for you to make decisions concerning your ongoing medical care if you lose your capacity to make such decisions due to physical or mental issues. Due to advancements in medical technology over the past decades, millions of Americans remain alive in nursing homes and other care facilities solely by means such as feeding tubes, intravenous hydration, and ventilators. A Living Will allows you to make decisions regarding your wishes at a time when you still have the capacity to make such a decision, to be disconnected from such artificial life-sustaining means.
Do you want to ensure that your end-of-life medical treatment aligns with your beliefs? Contact Hennis Legal Services today to partner with an attorney and create a living will.
