A healthcare power of attorney designates someone you trust to make medical decisions on your behalf when you are unable to communicate your wishes.

To start, choose a person who understands your values and can make decisions under pressure. We can help you select the right agent and tailor the document to Wisconsin law.
Your healthcare agent should be someone dependable, reachable, and willing to make difficult choices in line with your goals.
