Power of Attorney and Enduring Guardianship

If something happens to you while you are alive and you no longer have the ability to make decisions for yourself, Power of Attorney and Enduring Guardianship documents can be used to provide for your financial and lifestyle decisions


Your attorney, appointed under a Power of Attorney, can manage your assets and make decisions about your finances like paying bills and managing investments. An attorney can also sign legal documents for you.


Your appointed enduring guardian can make health and lifestyle decisions for you. For example, your enduring guardian can make choices about where you live and the services you receive such as healthcare. It is important to choose an attorney and enduring guardian carefully as they are in a position of trust and have a responsibility to act in your best interests.
