Advance Healthcare Directives in the San Fernando Valley

Estate Planning Lawyers Based in Woodland Hills

It is never too early to start thinking about who will make decisions about your medical treatment in the event that you become incapacitated. Having a plan for what type of care you would like to receive under such circumstances, as well as a designated person to make healthcare decisions for you during any period where you are unable, prevents decisions about your medical treatment being made against your wishes.

Advance Healthcare Directives in California

California law states that every individual has the right to give instructions about his or her healthcare, as well as name an agent who can make healthcare decisions on his or her behalf. The advance healthcare directive allows someone to do either or both of these things.

Advance healthcare directives allow you to give specific instructions about:

  • Your choice of primary physician
  • The provision, withholding, or withdrawal of treatment to keep you alive
  • Provision of pain relief
  • Donation of organs at death
