Power of Attorney Services in Greensboro, NC

Establishing a POA Is a Fundamental Part of Estate Planning

A power of attorney, or POA, is a key piece of your estate planning. A POA allows you to appoint another person, known as an "agent," to act in your place and make medical, financial, and other important decisions if you become incapacitated and are no longer able to make decisions for yourself. 

Without a power of attorney, if you become unable to make or express decisions on your own, your family will not automatically have access to make decisions for you. They will be forced to go through a long and strenuous process to gain that right. A power of attorney avoids this by naming a trusted person to act on your behalf when the situation calls for it.  

There are different types of power of attorney, and Lora M. Howard can help you understand what they are, as well as which is the most appropriate for your circumstances and needs.
