Massachusetts General Durable Immediate Power of Attorney

• an explanation of what an advance directive is,

• a Health Care Proxy appointing an agent to make health care decisions for you.

Massachusetts residents, plan for the future and protect your interests with this General Durable Springing Power of Attorney.

• A "springing" Power of Attorney becomes effective only if you become incapacitated. You can grant your attorney-in-fact the power to deal with a number of matters for you, including:
  • your real estate property,
  • banking and financial transactions,
  • stocks and bonds,
  • personal property,
  • insurance,
  • pension and employment benefits,
  • tax and legal matters,
  • your business affairs and operations.
• This Power of Attorney does NOT give your attorney-in-fact the authority to make health care or other medical decisions for you.
• Available in MS Word format and easy to fill in and print. No need to buy additional copies - you and your spouse can each prepare their own Power of Attorney with this form.
• Intended to be used only in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

If you were to die without a Will, your loved ones will have to pay court costs and legal fees to administer your estate. Don't let that happen. Get your complete USA Legal Will Kit and Estate Plan.
