Financial Power of Attorney

Appoint Someone You Trust

A financial power of attorney is a legal document in which you appoint someone you trust to act as your agent regarding your personal, financial and business matters. Everyone should have one, whether young or old. Having a financial power of attorney will avoid the necessity of having the court appoint a guardian over your financial assets if you are incapacitated. It will save thousands of dollars in surety bonds, guardian and attorney fees.
