Elder Law Updates
- Augmented Estate is
effective October 1, 1999, and applies to the
estates of those who die on or after October 1,
2001. Changes to the rights of the surviving
spouse will make planning for an incapacitated
spouse more effective than ever.
- The 1999
Florida Legislature made some subtle, yet
significant changes in the law regarding end of
life planning. All references to advance
directives include Living Wills and Designations
of Health Care Surrogate. End of Life Decisions,
effective October 1, 1999, is an issue to review
even if prior end of life decisions have been
made.
