What type of power of attorney do you wish to create? General Power of AttorneyEnduring Power of Attorney
A general power of attorney authorises your attorney(s) to act on your behalf and make decisions in relation to your legal and financial matters. It will become invalid if you lose your mental capacity (ie, you are unable to make your own decisions).
An enduring power of attorney is the same as a general power of attorney except that an enduring power of attorney continues to be effective even after you lose your mental capacity. Most of our clients choose the enduring power of attorney because it requires legal advice.
