What is a power of attorney?

A power of attorney is a legal document that assigns authority to another party to act as your agent and manage specific actions or functions. There are different types of powers of attorney that serve different purposes.

Medical Power of Attorney

A medical power of attorney assigns a trusted individual to make medical decisions on your behalf in the event that you are no longer capable of making your own medical decisions. A physician must certify incompetence before the medical POA can start making healthcare decisions. However, if you object to the treatment, whether incompetent or not, physicians cannot provide the treatment.

Get Started On Creating a Trust With Chris Pritt Law

Don’t skip out on having trust. In West Virginia, probate is required for estates valued at over $100,000 (if real estate is involved, the rules are even stricter). Given the value of homes in many Charleston neighborhoods, most families benefit from a trust to avoid the time and expense of the court process.

Without one, your assets will still end up in probate, and your wishes might be ignored. Chris works with you to ensure every detail is handled correctly, so your plan actually functions when your family needs it most.

We pride ourselves on being efficient. After our initial planning conversation, we work to promptly develop your documents so you can have comfort in your plan as soon as possible.
