Enduring Power of Attorney

Advance Care Planning Menu

An Enduring Power of Attorney is a legal document that allows appointed individual(s) or an organisation to take care of your financial affairs. This document is important if your decision-making ability is impaired, or you no longer want the responsibility. By preparing an Enduring Power of Attorney it ensures you, your loved ones and your assets are protected. It is important that you exercise your right to choose an attorney, while you still have the capacity to do so. A fee applies to registering this document.
