Free Printable Durable (Financial) Power of Attorney Forms
Durable power of attorney allows you to handle another person’s financial decisions on their behalf. All decisions made must be to the benefit of the person being represented. The one thing about the durable form that separates it from the rest is that it remains legal in the event the person being represented can no longer think for themselves.
