Where Can I Find a Living Will Blank Form?

Where can I find a living will blank form? There are a number of resources that you can use to find a living will blank form.  It is almost always best to start at the website for your state's bar association.

Upon deciding that filing a living will is the best option you have, you can locate a blank living will form from a number of online resources.

State and Professional Resources

The first resource that you should consider visiting to find a living will form is the relevant government or American Bar Association website for your state. This site will be different for each state, so you should use your favorite search engine for "living will" with the name of your state in order to find the form that applies where you live. For example, if you lived in New York, the best site to use for a blank living will form would be the NYSBA Living Will website, published by the New York Bar Association. Sites published by either the government or the Bar Association where you live will provide the forms or directions on how to acquire them and you can proceed with greater confidence that the site is legitimate.

Other Options

If you aren’t able to locate the Bar Association or local government living will forms, you may be able to download a form from LectLaw.com or US Living Will Registry. You can also visit your local library to find resources for information on drafting a living will.

Remember, writing a living will is not a decision you should make lightly, as it deals directly with your care in the event you become incapacitated. You should strongly consider getting sound legal advice before making such a will.
