Healthcare Powers of Attorney (POA)
Also known as a living will, a healthcare power of attorney is a document allowing a loved one or family member to make medical decisions for you if you cannot communicate your wishes. A written health care directive can provide guidance for the individual who has healthcare power of attorney, in making medical decisions on your behalf.
Power of Attorney - For Property and Finance
The power of attorney for property and finance is a document which designates an individual (usually a family member or friend) to make financial decisions for someone who is unable (either mentally or physically) to make these kind of decisions. The power of attorney can be quite broad (allowing the agent to handle almost all financial matters), or it can be narrowly restricted. It can become effective immediately, or in the future in the event of some disability. A significant benefit of the Durable Power of Attorney for Property and Finance is that it can continue in force even after the person becomes disabled or incompetent. This feature can, in many cases, eliminate the need (and substantial cost) of a guardianship through the courts. In addition, you, rather than a judge, get to choose the person to be your agent.
