It’s not uncommon for someone to be admitted to a hospital in Kentucky or Tennessee and be alive but unconscious or unable to make or communicate decisions about their own care. These situations can become complex, especially when well-meaning family members disagree about medical treatments and end-of-life care.
A living will is a legal document that ensures that, should you ever be unable to provide your own input in end-of-life decisions, your wishes about organ donation and intubation are known and respected. The living will lawyers at Crow Estate Planning & Probate can help you create a valid living will, offering you and your loved ones peace of mind.
Our attorneys focus only on estate and business planning, so they can execute a living will in a way that best protects your interests. Our living will lawyers can review your preferences for medical treatment in different situations and the most common issues that arise when someone is no longer able to make their own medical decisions.
For example, if someone is in a coma with only weeks to live, a living will ensures there is no ambiguity about that person’s wishes. Without a living will, if family members disagree on next steps, then the case may have to be decided by a judge.
At Crow Estate Planning & Probate, we keep your living will and estate plan up to date. Whether you have married, had children, divorced, moved, or undergone another major change, we can continually review these directives to ensure they still reflect your needs. If circumstances change, we can help you execute a new living will.

One of the most valuable reasons to consult with our team is to gain clarity. A living will can change, but it is fairly inflexible and does not cover all contingencies. We can help you review aspects of estate planning you may not have considered before, such as:

I cannot recommend Thomas Steelman highly enough! From the very start, he made the entire process of setting up our estate trust absolutely painless. His expertise and clear explanations turned what I expected to be a daunting task into a smooth and stress-free experience.
Not only did he handle every aspect of our estate trust with great attention to detail, but he (and law firm colleagues) also took care of transferring over our home deeds so we didn’t have to deal with the hassle of going to the county office ourselves. That alone saved us so much time and stress!
I honestly thought the process was going to cost a small fortune, but I was pleasantly surprised by how reasonable the pricing was. Most importantly, though, Thomas gave us peace of mind knowing that our hard-earned assets are protected and will go exactly where we want them—without placing unnecessary burdens on our loved ones.
If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and professional estate trust attorney, Thomas and team are the ones to trust. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
