What if I don't want an advance directive? You're not required to have an advance directive if you don't want one, but it's a good idea in order to guarantee that your wishes are followed regarding medical care. Otherwise, your family will have to make difficult decisions or incur large expenses and time delays if a legal guardianship or conservatorship is needed. If you become incapacitated and you have no advance directive, and your doctor and your family disagree about treatment, your health care decisions may have to be made in a court of law.
