Plan for the future and protect your interests with a Statutory Power of Attorney for the State of Minnesota, in accordance with Chapter 523.24 of the State Statutes. You decide whether the power of attorney becomes effective immediately or, alternatively, only in the event that you become incapacitated (a "springing" power of attorney). You may choose to grant your attorney-in-fact the authority to deal with:

• real property,
  
• tangible personal property,
  
• bonds, shares, and commodities,
  
• banking,
  
• business operations,
  
• insurance,
  
• beneficiary transactions,
  
• gifts,
  
• fiduciary transactions,
  
• claims and litigation,
  
• family maintenance,
  
• benefits from military service,
  
• records, reports and statements.

This Power of Attorney does NOT give your attorney-in-fact the authority to make health care or other medical decisions for you.
