| General Durable Power of Attorney | A general durable power of attorney for financial affairs allows you to appoint an agent (typically referred to as an "attorney-in-fact") to make your financial decisions for you if you are incapable of making them for yourself. The power of attorney is designed to avoid the expense and time delay involved in petitioning the court for the appointment of a guardian. It also allows you to appoint a guardian of your choice in the event that a court appointment becomes necessary. |

Without a properly drafted and signed durable medical power of attorney your spouse and/or children may not be able to control your medical care. |
