POWERS OF ATTORNEY FOR PROPERTY AND PERSONAL CARE

A Power of Attorney is a legal document that gives someone the right to make decisions on your behalf. Powers of Attorney only apply while you are alive and cease to be effective on your death. The Power of Attorney for Property allows someone to make decisions with respect to your financial affairs. By preparing this document, one can oftentimes avoid the significant expense of having a guardian of property appointed through the courts. The Power of Attorney for Personal Care allows someone to make decisions with respect to your health care.
