Understanding the Different Types of Powers of Attorney

We handle many different types of powers of attorney, including:

General Power of Attorney: Comprehensive Financial Authority

Agents granted general power of attorney has broad powers to act on your behalf, including hiring professional help, making gifts, operating relevant business interests, settling claims, purchasing life insurance, and handling both business and financial transactions. Granting this power is frequently a part of estate planning in order to prepare for the event that someone is in place to handle relevant financial matters in cases where you are no longer mentally or physically capable of managing your affairs. 

Special Power of Attorney: Tailored Authority for Specific Needs

When granting an agent special power of attorney, you can limit and specify the powers they have in the document. This type of power is typically granted when you have certain health reasons or other commitments that mean you are not able to handle certain affairs. Common matters often covered in these types of documents include selling property, managing real estate, collecting debts, and handling business transactions.
