Helping You Put An Effective Power Of Attorney In Place

We can help you protect your rights with a:

  • Durable power of attorney – A durable power of attorney stays in effect until the death of the person assigning the power. This avoids the need for a new power of attorney, should the grantor need to assign power of attorney on a temporary basis. We can also set up a power of attorney for a limited time, to cover a specific event or period of time.
  • Springing power of attorney – A power of attorney can go into effect immediately, or it can “spring” into being when certain conditions are met. An example of a springing power of attorney is one that is effective only if the grantor is declared disabled by a licensed physician.
  • Limited power of attorney – A power of attorney may govern all legal, financial and medical decisions or it may be for a limited purpose such as a health care power of attorney.
