This package includes Health Care Powers of Attorney for both spouses plus a 30-minute consultation with an estate planning attorney.
 
After purchase, you will receive a PDF with a link to complete our secure online questionnaire. Once submitted, the completed HCPOAs for both spouses will be sent directly to our legal team. One of our attorneys will contact you within 24 business hours to schedule your consultation and review both documents with you. You will receive your finalized documents following the attorney consultation.
 
WHAT IS A HEALTH CARE POWER OF ATTORNEY?
 
A healthcare power of attorney designates an agent to make healthcare decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated, while a living will outlines your wishes regarding end-of-life care. This combined document ensures your healthcare preferences are honored and provides peace of mind for you and your loved ones. Without a Healthcare Power of Attorney/Living Will, decisions concerning your medical care (if you are in a coma or permanent vegetative state) will be left to your spouse or family members. Your wishes may not be followed without written guidance.
 
WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO COMPLETE OUR DIY FORM:  
 
To complete our DIY form, you will need to provide the full legal names, addresses and phone numbers of both yourself, your chosen agent and a successor (back-up) agent. If you don’t have a back-up agent, that’s ok. You’ll also need to clearly articulate your preferences for medical treatment in various scenarios.  Please remember that this is a legal document with significant implications; consider consulting with one of our experienced estate planning attorneys for personalized advice.
 
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS:
 
You must be at least 18 years old and be of sound mind. 
You must sign and date the document. 
Two individuals must witness your signature and they must be at least 18 years old. 
The Healthcare Power of Attorney/Living Will does not need to be, but should be, notarized.
