Durable Power of Attorney


A grant of power of attorney allows you to grant someone else the power to act on your behalf in legal and business matters. A power of attorney may be for a special or limited purpose or time, or it can also be a general grant of legal authority to another. Grants of power of attorney can take either take place immediately or upon occurrence of some event, such as illness, absence or incapacitation.
Granting power of attorney can help your family if they need to care for you as you get older, allows you to designate someone to handle complex business affairs, or can even be useful if you just plan to vacation outside of the country for an extended period of time.
Using LegalZoom to set up a power of attorney is a simple process, and doing it yourself online without going through an attorney can help save you time and money.
