How Does A Power of Attorney and A Durable Power of Attorney Differ?
How Does A Power of Attorney and A Durable Power of Attorney Differ?
After you lose capacity, the majority of powers of attorney become ineffective.
As long as the individual is mentally competent, they only permit the agent to act as their representative.
The arrangement terminates immediately if they become mentally incompetent.
The terms of a durable power of attorney (DPOA) continue to apply even if you experience physical or mental incapacitation.
This means that even after you become unable to manage your own affairs, the agent continues to be in charge of some legal, medical, or financial problems (as stipulated in the agreement).
In your DPOA, you can specify whether you want the agreement to take effect right away or when a medical professional deems you incompetent.
You have the right to decide the medical professional who will have control over you in the event that you become disabled, so choose wisely.
