Lasting Power of Attorney
In order to prepare for the event of unexpected illness or sudden emergency that results in personal incapacitation, it can be advantageous to grant power of attorney in advance. If power of attorney is granted to another person or persons at an early stage for such cases (so-called health care proxy), they can act and make decisions on behalf of the person granting the power of attorney. This applies not only to medical decisions, but also to other areas of private or professional life. For example, bank powers of attorney or general powers of attorney can also be granted to ensure the continuation of the principal’s business activities.
Zeuss Grabosch Attorneys at Law offers you comprehensive legal support to draft an appropriate power of attorney for such cases and thus resolve possible future conflict situations.
