Lawyers can't solve every problem people face as they get older or their health declines. But we can address some of the most worrisome issues by drafting personalized powers of attorney.
Empower Your Trusted Individuals with a Power of Attorney
Powers of attorney allow people to hand over responsibility for key decisions to individuals they trust with their finances and their health decisions. They ensure that your wishes will be carried out in the event you are unable to make key decisions on your own.
Understanding the Flexibility of a Power of Attorney
A power of attorney is a legal document in which you appoint another person to act as an agent on your behalf. Many individuals combine power of attorney for both medical and financial decisions; others choose to name separate persons for each task. You have the flexibility to limit the scope of decisions your agent is authorized to address.
Ensure Clarity in Decision-Making with a Power of Attorney
Armed with this document, there will be no confusion as to who can make decisions. But it is not a straitjacket — you can revoke the power of attorney at any time.
