The above notwithstanding, in the event of a dispute or disagreement concerning the attending physician's decision to
withhold or withdraw life-prolonging procedures, the attending physician shall not withhold or withdraw life-prolonging
procedures pending expedited judicial review.
Do You Need a Living Will?
A Florida living will is the legal instrument in which typically a person directs the providing, withholding, or withdrawal of
life-prolonging procedures in the event that such person has a terminal condition, has an end-stage condition, or is in a
persistent vegetative state.
As with most of the legal instruments that may be used as part
of a well thought out estate plan, you should consider whether
you would benefit from having a Florida living will and how a
Florida living will prepared by a knowledgeable estate
planning attorney may help you achieve your goals.

Medical Decisions Regarding Life-Prolonging Procedures in Florida
If a person has made a living will expressing their desires concerning life-prolonging procedures, but has not designated a
surrogate to execute their wishes concerning life-prolonging procedures or designated a health care surrogate, the attending
physician may proceed as directed by the person in their living will.
The more areas your lawyer has experience with,
the better off you will likely be. No matter what
type of legal concern you have, no matter what
type of law, our goal will always be to help you

And remember...
If you live in Florida and you think you may need a Florida

Nevertheless, before proceeding in accordance with the
person's living will, it must be determined that the person does
not have a reasonable medical probability of recovering
capacity, that the person has a terminal condition, has an
end-stage condition, or is in a persistent vegetative state, and
that any limitations or conditions in the person's living will have
been carefully considered and satisfied.
The patient’s family, the health care facility, or the attending
physician, or any other interested person who may reasonably be
expected to be directly affected by the surrogate or proxy’s
decision concerning any health care decision may seek expedited
judicial intervention.
However, if a review of a disputed decision is not sought within seven days following the physician's decision, the physician may proceed as directed by the person in their living will.

In the absence of a living will, the decision to withhold or
withdraw life-prolonging procedures from a patient may be
made by a health care surrogate designated by the patient
unless the designation limits the surrogate’s authority.
