THE DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY KIT

How can you be certain that decisions about your health and your money will be made by someone you trust, and not by someone appointed by a court?  There is a solution - a little known but sure-proof - it is and extremely easy to implement.

Effective Legal Remedy

This legal tool is called the Durable Power of Attorney.  This function of a Durable Power of Attorney is to eliminate the need for conservatorship or guardianship proceedings in a court of law, should you ever become incapacitated and be unable to manage your own financial affairs or make your own health care decisions.

The Durable Power of Attorney keeps you in charge of your own destiny.  You can not some judge will determine who has the legal authority to act for you should the time ever come when you cannot make decisions for yourself.  Unless and until such incapacity offers, you continue to retain control over your affairs.  If it does, the person you have appointed takes over your affairs and acts within the guidelines and restrictions you have already established.

The person you have chosen to act in your behalf is called your attorney in fact.  Clearly, your attorney in fact, must be someone you trust completely.  This could be your spouse or another responsible member of your family or a friend.  Additionally, the law gives you the power to impose reasonable limitations and guidelines on the actions which your attorney in fact can take.

Your Attorney In Fact Represents You

The Attorney In Fact can pay bills, deposit checks, handle taxes, sell stocks, invest in securities - in short, everything that you would otherwise do for yourself.  You can specify in your Durable Power of Attorney whether you wish to have your money invested in stocks and bonds, real estate, or simply allowed to stay safely in a bank.  As a safeguard, you can direct that your representative cannot sell or encumber your house as long as you are alive.

Medical and Health Care Decisions

The Durable Power of Attorney authorizes the person you've selected to make medical and health care decisions when you are not in a position to make them yourself.  This may involve honoring your desire to be cared for by a particular physician in a particular medical facility, or may involve prohibiting the use of heroic medical medical efforts to sustain life artificially long after it has ceased to exist in any meaningful manner.

The Durable Power of Attorney allows you to express your wishes in a legal form and gives your attorney in fact the required power to implement them for you.  You can revoke this power at any time as long as you are competent.

Remember, without the Durable Power of Attorney, court proceedings may be necessary to appoint a person with legal authority to handle the incapacitated person's financial affairs.  Such guardianship or conservatorship proceedings are costly, time-consuming, public and embarrassing.  A court-appointed conservator has to post a bond cost which comes out of your estate.  He has to make periodic accountings to the court for this actions.  His powers are highly restricted and always subject to court supervision.  And once a conservator is appointed, it will take another court order of the court to replace him even though he proves incompetent or negligent.
