Enduring Power of Attorney
If you become unable to deal with your own financial affairs because of physical or mental disability,
who will look after your affairs?
The answer is:
NO ONE CAN! This is because
only you have the legal right to deal with
your money and assets. Question: What can I do?
You can make an Enduring Power of Attorney which will meet the need in these ways :
·
You decide who is to deal with your financial affairs - family, financial or trusted advisor
( the Attorney )
·
The Attorney can only act when and if you become incapable of dealing with your own affairs,
until then the Power of Attorney remains in suspension.
·
Medical evidence is required for mental incapacity. You can decide if you would like your
Attorney to act in the event of physical incapacity. You can place restrictions
upon what your Attorney can or cannot do on your behalf. |
