Experienced Medical and Financial Power of Attorney Lawyers
A financial or medical power of attorney is an essential estate planning tool. These documents allow you to make decisions regarding the financial matters or health care decisions for the person assigning you that right. People often make the mistake of thinking that giving someone the power of attorney means that you are signing over guardianship or conservatorship of your life and estate. In fact, powers of attorney can be drafted along very narrow lines, but can also be as broad as you wish them to be.
