A vital aspect of the estate planning process, a power of attorney legal document prepares you for unexpected life events.
A power of attorney is a legal document that allows someone else to act on your behalf. This is a private, inexpensive way to appoint a substitute decision-maker, although it may involve help from a lawyer. If you don’t create a power of attorney in advance, a friend or family member might have to go to court to have a guardian appointed – a process can be lengthy and expensive.
You can name both a financial power of attorney (for decisions about money and property) and a medical power of attorney (for decisions about health care).
