Create or update your durable financial power of attorney – fast and 100% free.
A Durable Financial Power of Attorney is a document that lets you appoint someone (known as your “agent”) to manage your finances for you if you ever become unable to do so for yourself. The name is made up of three parts: First, the authority you grant to your agent is called the “power of attorney.” Second, a “financial” power of attorney is one that grants authority over financial matters; it is different from a “healthcare” power of attorney, for example, which grants authority to make medical decisions. Finally, a “durable” power of attorney is one that remains in effect even after its creator becomes physically or mentally incapacitated.
