Durable Power Of Attorney
Protecting Your Financial and Legal Affairs
A Durable Power of Attorney (POA) allows you to designate someone you trust to make financial and legal decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated. This essential estate planning tool ensures that your affairs are handled according to your wishes, even when you're unable to do so.
At Monument Estate Planning, we draft durable powers of attorney that clearly outline who is authorized to make decisions for you and under what circumstances. This legal document provides peace of mind, knowing that your finances and legal matters will be managed responsibly by someone you trust, without the need for court intervention.
