On a living will, an individual can express if they would prefer not to be resuscitated or if they don’t want to be living artificially on life-support. Additionally, living wills establish a written declaration of a power of attorney, establishing a person who may legally speak on behalf of a patient who is unable to do so. Living wills are crucial pieces of documentation that are necessary for the dignity and wishes of a person who may fall unexpectedly into a life-threatening condition. If a person does not wish to live artificially on life support, a living will may be the only documentation that can secure their right to die with what they choose to be a dignified death. Unfortunately, living wills are not too common, resulting in countless Americans whose lives are extended long after they wish to live. In order to get a living will, one can either hire an attorney and have the attorney draft a living will or there are templates available that can be filled out and submitted for notarization.

Estate planning addresses the distribution of assets prior to a person's death. With the estate plan, the court understands the deceased's final wishes and how he or she wishes their assets to be shared. For some, the process is simple, as the assets are jointly owned or aren't of high value. Others, however, have estates that require special consideration. This is true when there are children involved or the deceased was a partner in one or more

In this worksheet, I went through estate-planning checklist and figured out the location of every important legal document. It is imperative to figure out someone an individual trusts, whether it is a family member or close friend who knows the answers to the difficult questions when someone dies. Some of the items on the checklist I have organized safely at my house and my father knows where my will, tax returns, personal information, and other significant legal documents are located. I hope that no one will have to use any of these legal documents for me in the future, because I have a lot of estate-planning left to do. I trust my dad if the event were to happen and I know things would be taken care of appropriately.

The process of dividing and distributing a person’s assets after death, called probate, can be time consuming and expensive. In order to avoid probate and save their families the hassle of hiring attorneys and waiting months to receive the gifts mentioned in a will, many people structure their estates in a way that circumvents the probate court system.

End of life decisions are very important because in some cases people lose the ability to provide informed consent for their medical treatment. If someone was unable to make his or her own health care decisions it becomes the responsibility of his or her designated surrogate. For example when someone is pronounced in a persistent vegetative state their health care surrogate would determine what kind of life prolonging procedures should be provided. During some point throughout a person’s lifetime it’s significant they make a Living Will that lists all of their intentions that will be respected by their family, friends and physicians. I chose to write about this topic because I recently created my own Living Will and had it signed by witnesses and documented incase I become incapacitated to express what treatment I want.

Kristen Schilts “Just one Of the Guys?” is a book that looks at transgender men in the workplace. Specifically, she focuses her study on inequality and how people are treated. It is well-known that many jobs treat men and women differently, but it is important to see if that continues when a person becomes transgender. In this case, she is looking at women born at birth that transition into men. She focuses her research in two different states; California and Texas. This is done because both states represent different beliefs. (California is more liberal, and Texas is more conservative). The research method Schilts used during this study was in depth interviews and observational data. This is important because it granted her access to their

The slogan embraced by The Law Offices of Robert S. Miles, APC , “People don’t plan to fail, but they sometimes fail to plan” says it all when it comes to estate planning.

However, it’s important to plan for these situations, even if they aren’t pleasant to think about. To neglect to do so leaves the remaining family members and friends in a difficult situation.

We usually think of a person’s will as a financial document used to make sure his or her estate is distributed according to his or her wishes. The will can also be used as a constructive tool or a destructive weapon to reach other goals, which often do not involve money. Eddy M. Elmer, in his article, “The Psychological Motives of the Last Will and Testament” describes the use of wills. Used positively, a will can be used to foster a sense of continuity for the survivors and to preserve family relationships. Used negatively, through imposed conditions, disinheritance, unequal treatment, and attaching “strings,” a will can be used to control from the grave and continue dysfunction in a family.

A living will also allows a person to state with particularity the forms of treatment are wanted and not wanted. For example, if a one does not want artificial life support, then sign the living will stating that desire. It is also important to discuss your beliefs and wishes with you family, spouse and other people whose opinions you respect, such as clergy,
