Power of Attorney

The purpose of the power of attorney is to give broad and sweeping powers to another person called your “attorney-in-fact”. Your attorney-in-fact is able to manage your affairs on your behalf. Any action taken by your attorney-in-fact pursuant to the powers you designate in your power of attorney form is considered binding, as though you took the action yourself. Your spouse does not automatically have the general power to act on your behalf if you become incapacitated or incompetent without a power of attorney. Having a power of attorney avoids having a court appoint a conservator to make financial decisions for you.
