Consequences of Not Having a Power of Attorney

Without a Power of Attorney, your family would need to apply through the courts for a financial guardianship or intervention order if you become incapacitated.

This process is complicated and stressful, and your loved ones would be breaking the law if they accessed your money or acted on your behalf without proper authorization.

When to Establish Your Power of Attorney

The best time to set up a Power of Attorney is now, while you are in a sound mental state. Once registered with the authorities, it is ready to be used if needed. You can revoke or change it at any time.

A Power of Attorney is invaluable at any age. It’s a common misconception that only the elderly need one. Accidents and unexpected illnesses can happen at any age, and delaying setting up a Power of Attorney could leave you unprotected.

Benefits of a Power of Attorney

Temporary Incapacitation

In case you develop a temporary condition and recover, your Power of Attorney will become dormant, allowing you to resume control of your affairs.

Remote Situations

If you are overseas or otherwise unable to sign important documents, your Power of Attorney can act on your behalf.

Permanent Debilitating Condition

Should you develop a permanently debilitating condition like Alzheimer’s, your Power of Attorney ensures your affairs are managed according to your wishes.
