Power of Attorney (POA)

A Power of Attorney is a legal document that grants someone the authority to act on your behalf. This can be essential for managing finances, making medical decisions, or handling property matters.

Types of Power of Attorney:

• General Power of Attorney: Grants broad powers to handle personal and financial matters.

• Specific Power of Attorney: Authorizes someone to act on behalf of another person for specific tasks or decisions.

• Durable Power of Attorney: Remains effective even if the person granting it becomes incapacitated.

• Springing Power of Attorney: Only takes effect under specific conditions, typically upon the incapacitation of the principal.

 

Common Types of Affidavits:

• Affidavit of Support: Used to confirm financial support, often for immigration purposes.

• Affidavit of Execution: Certifies that a document was signed in the presence of a witness.

• Affidavit of Domicile: Verifies the legal residence or domicile of an individual.
