When you draft a durable power of attorney, you are essentially selecting one person to handle your financial affairs when you are no longer able to do so. The power of attorney will grant this person full power of any of your assets that are not held in a trust.
From paying your bills to conducting business, the power of attorney will allow this person to make important and necessary financial transactions. When you are granting so much power to one person, you want to make sure it is someone you can trust to honor your wishes. We will make sure you select the right party before you hand this person the power to conduct the following in the event of your incapacity:
- Pay bills and health care premiums
- File your taxes
- Conduct transactions
- Make expenditures
- Sell property
While general powers of attorney give one party power to make important financial decisions, you may also want someone else watching over your health. If you have been placed in a nursing home or hospitalized due to an accident or serious illness, you will also want to have the right health care powers of attorney in place.
