Hospital Visiting Lawyer for Wills, Powers of Attorney, Personal Directives

When you or a loved one has been admitted to the hospital, it is important that you ensure that the estate planning documentation is in order, including your own (or your loved one’s) last will & testament, powers of attorney, personal directives, etc.
Unfortunately, far too many people have wills and other estate planning documents that are out-of-date, contrary to their current intentions, or have never been prepared or signed.
Meanwhile, people named in the documents pass away, move away or are no longer close to yourself, such that they might not be capable of serving as your executor or personal representative / personal attorney, or the distribution of your estate needs to modified, including adding and/or deleting beneficiaries.
In those circumstances, you cannot wait any longer in getting the estate planning documents in full legal order, from the last will & testament to a power of attorney for property and finance and a personal directive for health.
Since if you (or your loved one) become incapacitated, or worse yet pass away, your true intentions will not be known, such that you might have the wrong people authorized to perform important functions and your estate might not be properly distributed.
These are serious concerns, which complicates the situation and tends to create many unwanted results; while having things done correctly will give you the peace of mind so as to eliminate this unnecessary distraction and focus on your personal health.
For this particular reason, we undertake hospital visits (as well as hospice and in-home visits) to allow you to attain up-to-date estate planning documents, from your last will & testament to a power of attorney for property and finance and a personal directive for health.
These are matters that need to be addressed promptly, especially when you or a loved one has been hospitalized, or admitted to a hospice or other medical care facility, as this is one aspect that should be done as soon as possible, as opposed to putting it off unnecessarily.
At the same time, because of the perception associated with creating or modifying a will when hospitalized, or otherwise under a perceived infirmity, especially when the distribution of one’s estate is intentionally inequitable, it is all the more important that it is undertaken with a lawyer and rigorously conducted to accord with strict legal precedent.
So if you or a loved one has been admitted to Calgary’s Foothills Medical Centre, Peter Lougheed Centre, Rockyview General Hospital, South Health Campus, Tom Baker Cancer Centre, Cochrane Community Health Centre, Airdrie Community Health Centre or other medical facility, hospice or seniors home in metropolitan Calgary, Alberta, you need to ensure that your own (or your loved one’s) last will & testament, power of attorney and personal directive is up-to-date and reflects your current intentions.
