Legal Considerations
The most important thing you can do related to end of life legal considerations is to develop a simple End of Life Plan. This plan is essentially a compilation of all the legal documents you will need in addition to written information on burial choices, organ donation, and information on how to locate important contacts and vital records.
The plan is not complicated and it will save you from having to make emotional decisions at a time of grief and mourning. Checklists will guide you step by step in accumulating the necessary legal and other documents and information.

and your attorney if you have one. |
