Designation of Health Care Surrogate

Another important estate planning tool is the designation of healthcare surrogate.  The designation of healthcare surrogate allows you to name a person to make medical decisions on your behalf if you become unable to make the decisions for yourself.  Florida law requires that a designation of a health care surrogate be made in a written document in accordance with Florida Statute 765.203.  It is important to have a knowledgeable and skilled attorney draft and review your designation of healthcare surrogate document to insure that it is valid.
