Living Wills

Chicago Living Wills Lawyer
Advanced Directive Attorneys

If you were in an irreversible coma …

That is a situation that is terrible to contemplate, yet it happens to people far too often. A sudden accident or a devastating medical event can put you in a position of not ever being able to tell your doctor or your family how you want the situation handled.

A Chicago Living Will lawyer can help you express your wishes so that doctors and family members understand what you want. A situation like an irreversible coma can cause extraordinary pressure for your family and among health care givers.

Talk to an attorney about your wishes. How do you want life support, medical treatment, food, and water handled if you are in a coma? Is there a point at which you want medical intervention to end? This is a very personal decision — one that is very difficult for family members. Also called an Advanced Directive, a Living Will can assure that when you can't speak, your Living Will will speak for you.

In the alternative, you may want to have a health care power of attorney so that someone you trust can handle medical decisions for you.
