Agent under Powers of Attorney
A durable power of attorney is designed to provide power and authority to another person to make your decisions even after you are incapacitated or lack the capacity to make your own decisions. An agent under a power of attorney may have the authority to make both financial decisions on your behalf and decisions regarding your personal needs and medical care. Designating a power of attorney in advance can be a valuable planning tool for your potential future needs. Choosing the agent of your power of attorney is an extremely important decision.
There are many variables that need to be discussed and clearly understood before you designate an agent. It is very important that you speak with an attorney (preferably with related experience, such as an elder law attorney) to discuss the options and implications of the powers of attorney and to prepare your documents.
