Enduring Powers of Attorney
Planning for your future is hard, and we don't just mean what you're going to have for dinner tonight. For example, have you appointed an attorney under an EPA yet? (P.S. The answer to the dinner question is almost always mac & cheese).
1. What’s Enduring Power of Attorney (EPA)?
There may come a time when you need someone to make those decisions when you can’t. Entrusting that responsibility to someone can be daunting. We’re here to ensure this person is someone you can trust completely.
There are two types of EPA documents - one for your property/financial matters, and one for your personal care and welfare.
The person you appoint is called your attorney. The document which appoints them is the Enduring Power of Attorney. So making sure you appoint someone who’ll act fairly and with absolute care is essential. Whoever this may be, our experience and expertise will make the process simple for both sides, and ensure your decisions are understood and carried out.
