Q.Does a Living Will or Durable Power Of Attorney For Health Care Expire?

A.Validly executed legal documents relating to health care remain effective unless you specifically revoke them, or a court steps in (which is rare). If you revoke a Living Will or Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care you should immediately inform your named agent, close relatives, and all of your physicians. If you are planning to change, amend or revise a Living Will or Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care, it is best to execute new documents and to provide your agent, close relatives and doctors with a copy of the newly executed documents.

We strongly suggest that you review and re-execute A Living Will and Durable Power Of Attorney For Health Care every five (5) years.
