Estate planning involves consideration of a number of documents to protect you and your loved ones. An Enduring Power of Attorney is a legal document that allows you to appoint someone you trust to make decisions for you during your lifetime, if you no longer have the capacity to do so. Attorneys can be appointed to manage your financial matters and/or your personal and health matters. Importantly, you can only make an Enduring Power of Attorney while you have the capacity to do so. There are specific witnessing requirements for an Enduring Power of Attorney to be valid.
