Enduring Power of Attorney

This is a legal document authorising another person, such as a trusted friend or relative, to act on your behalf in your affairs. This person is known as your 'attorney'.

It is a convenient method of allowing someone to handle your affairs if you: go overseas; take an extended holiday; suffer poor health; or reach an age when you need greater assistance.

Knowing you have an attorney capable of dealing with your affairs when you are absent or infirm gives you peace of mind.
