It’s a legal paper by which you empower a dependable person (termed as “the attorney”) to make personal, financial, legal, and property judgments on your behalf, should you become mentally incapable of doing so.
An Enduring Power of Attorney is conferred upon an individual you trust to make suitable financial and personal judgments on your behalf.
Some of the functions an attorney can carry out for you include: paying your bills, endorsing documents, engaging in property transactions, and managing shares and bank accounts.
