What is a Power of Attorney?

A Power of Attorney (POA) is a legal document that lets you appoint someone you trust to handle your personal, financial, or legal affairs if you are unable to do so yourself.

This person, known as your agent or attorney-in-fact, can act on your behalf in important matters—from managing bank accounts and paying bills to making key financial or property decisions.

Having a Power of Attorney in place ensures that your affairs are managed smoothly, even if you’re unavailable or incapacitated.
