Powers of Attorney and Representation Agreements

A Power of Attorney is a legal document that allows you to appoint one or more people to make legal and financial decisions on your behalf.  This is a very useful document, whether it be a general Power of Attorney giving broad abilities or limited to a specific purpose such as signing contractual documents while you are out of town.

Having a Power of Attorney in place is important for everyone so that it is clear who you want to make your legal and financial decisions in the event that you become incapable of doing so yourself.  A Power of Attorney can be revoked or revised at any time while you have capacity.

Representation Agreements are similar legal documents in that they appoint a trusted person or people to make decisions on your behalf, but with regards to medical matters.   Having a Representation Agreement prepared means that your doctor will know exactly who to speak to for what are often very difficult medical decisions.  A Representation Agreement gives your family important guidance as to your wishes.

We offer Power of Attorney preparation starting at $200 and Representation Agreements starting at $250.  Call or email Katy to get started today.
