Frequently Asked Questions

All information on the site is presented to permit you to find the information you need while avoiding unnecessary information. Information is provided in a general format. You are then given the tools to go deeper and deeper, down to form letters or what to say or not say in certain circumstances or interactive charts.

So, information is first presented in Categories – broad strokes to give you an overview of a particular area. For instance, Planning Ahead is a category.

Topics are the next level down. Topics are more specific, but still general. For instance, Living Wills is a topic under the category, Planning Ahead.

Articles are more specific still. For instance, Enforcing A Living Will And Other Advance Directives describes how to make sure the wishes you express in a Living Will are actually carried out.

Sections are even more specific. For example, one of the ways to help assure that the wishes expressed in your Living Will are carried out is to Have A Discussion With Your Family Members.
