Power of Attorney

Every adult should have a power of attorney for finance regardless of their age and assets, as one never knows when they may be incapacitated.  The individual specified in the power of attorney document to act on your behalf when you are unable is known as the “attorney”.  Choosing the right individual to act on your behalf is a critical decision, as you must have complete trust in the person or persons chosen. It is crucial to understand that the selected individual will have the right to manage your assets and money without your consent.
