Advance Decision

Template: Advance Decision (Living Will)

Read what Net lawman says about this template:

"Advance decisions used to be called living wills. They are sometimes also called advanced directives. They allow you to refuse life-sustaining treatment should you no longer be able to make decisions about your healthcare. They are usually used when your condition is likely to be permanent. Your refusal of medical treatment is legally binding on any doctor in England and Wales.

While you may also request life-sustaining treatment, no matter what your prospects of recovery, doctors do not have to respect these requests. They are already obliged to act in your best interests."


Detailed guidance notes are provided with each template. Net Lawman offers a money back guarantee if the document is not what you need, as well as a legal review option if you want some professional assistance when you are drawing up your documents.
