A power of attorney (POA) for property is a form that lets you give someone else the ability to:

  • Handle your money, and
  • Make financial decisions for you.

A power of attorney for property makes sure that your financial decisions are handled properly if you can't handle them on your own. If you are too sick or injured to make these decisions, a power of attorney lets a person you trust make the decisions for you.
