Power of Attorney and Enduring Power of Attorney
A general Power of Attorney is an authority you give to someone to handle your property affairs while you are mentally capable. It is common, for instance, for this to be arranged if you are intending to travel overseas
An Enduring Power of Attorney applies even if you cease to be mentally capable. There are two types of Enduring Power of Attorney:
- Personal Care and Welfare
- Property
An Enduring Power of Attorney will usually arise when a person is concerned about how their affairs will be managed if they become mentally incapable.
