One of March’s tasks is to create (or update) a power of attorney. Click to read more about this important estate planning task. Essentially a power of attorney is giving power while protecting yours. As part of your estate plan, you might have to share your power with someone you trust. The estate planning tool that allows someone to legally act on your behalf is called a power of attorney (POA). POAs can be divided into financial and healthcare.
A financial POA is a legal document which grants the authority to act as your agent and this can be anyone you trust and legally name. This gives your agent the ability to manage your finances when you are unable to within the scope of the agreement. A healthcare POA allows the person you designate to make decisions about your healthcare when you are unable to make those decisions yourself. POAs are only valid while you are alive.
