Power of Attorney

What would you do if you were no longer able to make decisions for yourself after a debilitating disease or event such as a stroke, mental illness, or an accident? An Enduring Power of Attorney allows you to designate who will act on your behalf under circumstances such as these, and will then be able to handle your financial and legal matters.
