Doris L. Martin and Eve Green Koopersmith, partners at Garfunkel, Wild & Travis, and Barbara D. Knothe, a senior attorney at the firm, write that most New York practitioners know that a Health Care Proxy must be signed to control medical decision-making if someone is incapacitated. What they might not know is how to best prepare the Proxy and determine what other health care documents, such as Do Not Resuscitate Orders, Medical Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment and Disposition of Remains Forms, may be advisable for a client's situation.
