Is Your Child Legally Prepared For College? Once your child turns 18, you no longer have legal authority to make medical decisions on their behalf. Privacy laws preclude physicians from speaking to you about your child’s medical care. In fact, you don’t even have a right to decide their proper course of treatment if need be. Preparing your child for college includes the signing of documents which give you access to information regarding their health and welfare. Even if your child has already left for college, it isn’t too late to prepare the necessary paperwork. As parents we hope to never need these documents, but having them in our file is imperative! Cory can quickly and easily prepare them for you. Email Cory Esters, Attorney At Law at coryesters@icloud.com.
