A power of attorney (POA) is a legal document you use to name an agent (also known as an attorney-in-fact) to make important choices for you when you can’t make them yourself.
Without a trusted power of attorney, you could wind up in a critical financial or medical situation where you’re unable to get things done that have a big influence on you and your family’s future. Having a POA in place is the only way to have a legal guarantee that someone with your best interests in mind also has the power to act on those interests.
