Powers Of Attorney for Difficult Times

A power of attorney allows you to give legal authority to another person—usually a family member, friend or trusted advisor—to handle your financial matters if you're unavailable or unable to manage them. This might include paying bills, handling bank accounts, managing property or signing legal documents on your behalf.

We help you choose the right type of power of attorney for your situation: general (for short-term use) or enduring (which continues if you lose mental capacity). We also help ensure your appointed person understands their role, obligations and limits.

It's not just a document—it's a safeguard. And with proper legal advice, you can feel confident knowing everything is done properly and respectfully.

Appointing Someone You Can Trust

We know this is a big decision, so we try to make sure nothing is rushed. You'll be walked through your options and what's involved, with time to ask questions and consider your choices.

We also help with preparing the supporting documents that may be needed by banks, real estate agents or health providers once your power of attorney is active. If you need us to liaise directly with your attorney or attend an in-home appointment, we can do that too.

This isn't just paperwork—it's about protecting your independence and seeking to make sure your voice is heard, even if you can't speak for yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions

A power of attorney is a legal document that gives someone else the authority to make financial or legal decisions on your behalf. You can appoint someone to manage your property, bank accounts and other assets if you’re overseas, unwell or otherwise unable to act. It doesn’t cover health or lifestyle decisions (that’s a separate document called an enduring guardian). Powers of attorney can be short-term or continue indefinitely, depending on what you need.
