DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEYS

Durable Powers of Attorneys are generally designed to take effect immediately; however, they can also be limited to taking effect when you become incapacitated. A Power of Attorney allows a pre-appointed person to conduct every designated aspect of your personal business in the same way that you could; it does not, however, extend to your medical care. Statutory Durable Powers of Attorney generally grant broad powers.  The attorneys at Smith & Garg will explain and discuss with you the effect of signing this document.

Limited Powers of Attorneys can grant limited power over a long period of time. They can also be designed to apply to a specific event, such as the sale of real estate.   Upon completion of the event, they become ineffective.
