We all want to prepare for our families as much as possible, whether it is saving for college, planning how to pass on your massive estate or guaranteeing all of your insurance is in order. But what if you don't have a family of your own yet, or if you don't need to worry about providing for any young children? Or better yet, what if you have no estate to speak of and instead find yourself in massive credit card debt? Whether it is planning for your family or simply planning for yourself, you can use what's called a living will. Sometimes called an advance health directive or a will to live, living wills firmly establish your decisions about how you would like artificial life support used in case you are dependent upon it.
As competent adults, we have a constitutional right to make advance decisions regarding our medical care. By establishing a living will now, you guarantee that your family will not have to guess about your desires at a later date. Included in a LegalZoom South Carolina living will is the designation of a health care agent, a person able to make decisions for you if you cannot, even if you are not terminally ill or in an irreversible coma.
LegalZoom can help prepare a customized living will that meets every South Carolina requirement. Start the process today by simply filling out our easy-to-follow online questionnaire. Get your very own living will in three easy steps.
