MAKE YOUR FREE Living Will Revocation
What is a Living Will Revocation?
A Living Will Revocation can undo a current living will. Maybe you're not quite as sure about certain things as you were a few years ago or maybe you plan on making so many changes to the existing will you'd rather start from scratch. It's understandable as there's a lot that goes into making a will: choosing which assets to distribute, deciding upon end of life care, naming beneficiaries. You may also be considering getting married and weighing the benefits of having a joint living will. No matter the reasons, a Living Will Revocation can help you if you're considering redoing your will. Plans can change, and it's important that your paperwork changes along with them. When you sign a Living Will Revocation, you're cancelling your current living will so that you can start with a clean slate.
When to use a Living Will Revocation:
- You want to revoke an existing Living Will.
- You've changed your mind about life sustaining procedures.
- You want to make substantial revisions to your current living will and believe starting over will be easier.
