Enduring Power of Attorney and Appointment of an Enduring Guardian

A Power of Attorney is a legal document in which you can grant to another person the authority to make legal and financial decisions on your behalf.

A valid Enduring Power of Attorney continues to be legally effective even if the person who grants the power loses mental capacity.

An Enduring Power of Attorney ceases to be in effect when the person who grants the power dies.

In order to sign a Power of Attorney, the donor must be capable of understanding the nature of the document they are signing and its effect.

An Appointment of an Enduring Guardian is a legal document in which you can grant another person the authority to make medical and other non-financial decisions for you if you become unable to make those decisions for yourself.
