WHAT IS A DURABLE GENERAL POWER OF ATTORNEY?
 
A durable general power of attorney is a legal document that allows you (the "principal") to appoint someone you trust (the "agent") to manage your financial affairs, even if you become incapacitated. This provides a valuable tool for ensuring your bills are paid and assets are managed according to your wishes if you are unable to do so yourself.
 
WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO COMPLETE OUR DIY FORM:  
 
To complete our DIY form, you will need to provide the full legal names, addresses and phone numbers of both yourself, your chosen agent and a successor (back-up) agent. If you don’t have a back-up agent, that’s ok. Please remember that this is a legal document with significant implications; consider consulting with one of our experienced estate planning attorneys for personalized advice. 
 
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS:
 
You must be at least 18 years old and be of sound mind. 
You must sign and date the document. 
Two individuals must witness your signature and they must be at least 18 years old.
