Powers of Attorney
DSR Legal Recognizes the Critical Importance of Planning for Unforeseen Circumstances, Which is Why We Offer Comprehensive Powers of Attorney Tailored to Your Specific Needs.
Powers of attorney come in two primary forms: medical and financial, each serving distinct purposes in safeguarding your interests and ensuring your wishes are honored in times of incapacity or disability.
Medical powers of attorney grant a trusted individual, known as a healthcare proxy or agent, the authority to make medical decisions on your behalf if you are unable to do so yourself. This includes decisions regarding medical treatments, procedures, and end-of-life care. Our team works closely with you to understand your healthcare preferences and values, ensuring that your medical power of attorney aligns precisely with your wishes and provides clear guidance to your chosen healthcare agent.
On the other hand, financial powers of attorney (also known as "General-Durable" powers of attorney) empower a designated individual, known as an attorney-in-fact or financial agent, to manage your financial affairs in the event of your incapacity. This can include tasks such as paying bills, managing investments, and making financial decisions on your behalf. Our experienced attorneys take the time to understand your financial situation and goals, drafting a comprehensive financial power of attorney that grants specific powers to your chosen agent while safeguarding your assets and interests.
Whether you require a medical power of attorney, a financial power of attorney, or both, our dedicated team is here to guide you through the process with care and precision. By entrusting us with this crucial aspect of your estate plan, you can have peace of mind knowing that your affairs will be managed effectively during challenging times, preserving your interests and legacy for the future.
