Why You Should Make a Power of Attorney
Making a power of attorney ensures that even if you become unable to make decisions about your finances and property, someone you trust will be able to do it for you.
This Power of Attorney is effective immediately and remains in effect even if you become disabled or incompetent. That is why it's called a durable power of attorney.
What powers will my attorney-in-fact have?
You can choose to give your attorney-in-fact the power to deal with a number of matters, 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 decisions about your healthcare or end-of-life treatments.
