CPT Law, Your Partner In The Journey To Financial Security!
When autonomy over your financial and legal affairs gets challenging, ensuring seamless handling becomes crucial. The answer to this issue lies in a Durable Power of Attorney (DPOA). In Sacramento, CPT Law is your reliable partner, ready to assist you in crafting a DPOA.
A Durable Power of Attorney is a legal document that lets you appoint a trusted individual to make critical legal decisions on your behalf. This document comes into play precisely when it’s needed the most, allowing someone to act on your behalf during periods of incapacity.
Why Is The Durable Power of Attorney Essential?
The Durable Power of Attorney serves as a vital tool in your estate planning toolkit. This document empowers you to designate a dependable individual, often referred to as your “agent” or “attorney-in-fact.” When autonomy is compromised, your agent steps in to:
Handle Financial Affairs
Your agent can manage tasks such as bill payments, investment decisions, and account access. They diligently oversee financial transactions, maintain records, and make prudent choices to preserve your financial well-being.
Legal Decision-Making
Your DPOA grants authority to your agent for making legal decisions, including contract signings or addressing legal matters. This extends to handling necessary legal paperwork, advocating for your interests, and providing a trustworthy legal representative.
Healthcare Matters
While not a Healthcare Power of Attorney, your agent may also possess authority in healthcare decisions. This ensures that the respective person can play a supportive role in safeguarding your well-being with informed decision-making.

what will happen if you don’t have a durable power of attorney?
If you don’t have a Durable Power of Attorney in place, your loved ones will have to petition the court to obtain a guardianship over you. This is a difficult process for loved ones. They have to serve you with paperwork and take you to court. Because the court system can be slow, you will likely have a temporary guardian while your loved ones wait to be named permanent guardians. This is expensive and embarrassing, and it means a stranger will care for you. Getting a Durable Power of Attorney in place allows your family to avoid this challenging situation. Instead, they can seamlessly transition into making critical decisions on your behalf.

when should you create a durable power of attorney?
It is never too early to create a Durable Power of Attorney as part of your estate plan. If you wait until you are incapacitated, you cannot legally enter into such an agreement. Because a Durable Power of Attorney won’t go into effect until you’re incapacitated, you can create it today while you’re healthy without it impacting your decision-making process. It will then be ready to kick in if you are to become incapacitated and can’t make decisions for yourself.
revoking a durable power of attorney
If you are of sound mind, you can legally revoke a Durable Power of Attorney in California. The state requires that you create an official statement of revocation to invalidate the Durable Power of Attorney. After you create the document, you must distribute it to all people involved with the original power of attorney. However, if your spouse was the agent and you dissolve your marriage, you do not need to revoke it. The court will automatically terminate the agreement, and you will need to select a new agent.
