How do I manage medical decisions for my son if he is in another state?

Posted on Thu Oct 29, 2015, on Medical Power of Attorney Living Will

From our “Ask a Question” mailbag: My son does not get along with his stepfather and wants to move to another state to live with relatives. He won’t turn 18 for another year. How do I manage medical decisions for him if he is in another state?

For non-emergency medical care, there is likely no problem as you can communicate with his local doctor and give authorization for examinations or minor care. Work with his doctor and give their office the authorization that they request.

Very easy to deal with. Like the fact they are focused on estate planning and their expertise in this area shows. Peter and staff were helpful and easy to communicate with.

We came to this firm based because of the online reviews we read and were not disappointed. Peter and the staff were a pleasure to work with - Peter was friendly, knowledgeable and patient with all our questions and the office staff were extremely responsive and efficient with all the scheduling and follow up needed to get us ready for the signing. We also like that all documents are housed in a portal that is easily accessible. Thank you to Peter and the team for helping us cross 'update estate planning documents' off our list.

I worked with Daniella to settle my father’s estate. She was kind, efficient, knowledgeable, and made the entire process seamless. I highly recommend working with Daniella.

Daniella was fantastically wonderful. A joy to be around and filled our conversations with so much educational knowledge. I’ve learned so much from her about being a great person and I can’t wait to work with her again
