General Powers of Attorney
A General Power of Attorney is a document which will allow the “Donor” (the person making the power) to name a person or people who they wish to be able to act on their behalf.
However, a General Power of Attorney works only as long as the person who made it understands its implications. Therefore, it is often the case that when they are most needed, they stop working. This is when a Lasting Power of Attorney is needed.
