What is a “Power of Attorney”? Who should I appoint my attorney? What do I need to do or know to make these decisions?The Ministry of the Attorney General’s webpage on Powers of Attorney answers all of these questions and more. This page is very informative, describing the differences between the two types of powers of attorney, the requirements for creating a power of attorney, considerations on who to appoint, etc. If you want to inform yourself on powers of attorney, this webpage is a great place to begin. It will help you focus your thinking to the relevant issues and may bring to mind important questions or considerations to raise with your lawyer.
