Healthcare Directives in New Orleans
A healthcare proxy and living will so your medical wishes are known and someone you trust can speak for you.
A healthcare directive makes sure that if you cannot speak for yourself medically, someone you trust can — and that your wishes about care are on record. It combines a healthcare proxy, which names the person who makes medical decisions for you, with a living will that states your preferences about life-sustaining treatment. It relieves your family of having to guess at the hardest possible moment.
Healthcare documents we prepare
- Healthcare proxy naming your medical decision-maker
- Living will stating your treatment preferences
- HIPAA authorizations so your agent can access records
- Coordination with your financial power of attorney
These are short documents that make an enormous difference at the wrong moment, and they belong in every plan. New Orleans, LA clients get them prepared alongside the rest, explained clearly.

Healthcare Directives — Common Questions
Do you help families in Metairie and across Jefferson Parish?
Yes. We work with families throughout the greater New Orleans area, including Metairie, Kenner, Gretna, Chalmette, and Slidell, across both Orleans and Jefferson Parishes. Estate planning is done based on where you live, and we will make sure your documents are valid where you are.
We own property that has been in the family a long time — does that complicate a plan?
It can, and it is exactly why planning ahead matters here. Property that has passed down informally over generations can create tangled ownership if it is not addressed, and a clear plan now spares your heirs a difficult process later. We will walk you through how to handle it in plain terms.
How much does an estate plan cost, and how does billing work?
For most estate-planning packages we charge a flat, explained fee rather than an open-ended hourly bill, and the initial consultation is free. What you pay depends on which documents your situation actually calls for — we will tell you what you need rather than selling you more than that.
