Planning Ahead to Prevent Conflict

Establishing power of attorney and a health care proxy is not just about protecting you. It's also about protecting your family. Without the necessary legal preparations in place, your family will have to go through a process that is legally complicated and often emotionally difficult. You still have time to protect them.

By determining your health care proxy in advance, you're not just protecting your wishes. You will also reduce the burden on your family and minimize any conflict.

A health care proxy is empowered to make decisions and give instructions regarding your medical needs if you are unable to express those wishes yourself. When you work with us, we'll compose detailed written instructions for your proxy as well as legal documents that create that role.

In Massachusetts, a durable power of attorney will not allow someone to make medical decisions on your behalf. That role is reserved for a health care proxy only. To ensure that your wishes are protected, work with an experienced attorney who understands the nuances of state law. Call us today!
