Enduring or Financial Powers of Attorney

Enduring or Financial Powers of Attorney

A Statutory Form Power of Attorney (S-POA) in Nevada is a financial advance directive in which you (as “principal”) name a trusted person(s) (proxy, or in Nevada “agent”) to legally manage your financial matters for you when you cannot due to illness, injury, age, etc. In Canada, this document is commonly known as Enduring Powers of Attorney, of Financial Powers of Attorney. See https://www.alberta.ca/personal-directive.aspx as a comparison.

The most important advantage of a DPOA-H is to help you avoid a US guardianship over your property located in Nevada and US, the hassle, thousands of dollars in legal fees, costs, dealing with attorneys, and delays in guardianship court.
