Is a Georgia Will and a Living Will effective in Florida?

Answer 1

Any will executed by a nonresident will be accepted into probate in Florida if it was valid under the law of the jurisdiction in which it was executed at the time it was executed.

As for a living will, every state has passed legislation regarding living wills and the guidelines, provisions and requirements vary. You should execute a Florida living will or have your existing living will reviewed by a Florida attorney for a minimal fee.

Additional comment: I can add, from personal knowledge, that the provisions of a living will might not/will not be honored if you find yourself in a medical facility or hospital that for philisophical or religious reasons refuses to honor your directives. For instance: any hospital system operated by, or affiliated with, the Roman Catholic Church.
