What is a power of attorney?

A power of attorney is a legal document that sets out directions for who will manage your financial and medical decisions while you’re alive if you are incapable of making decisions for yourself (such as if you’re unwell or in hospital - this is usually documented in an enduring power of attorney) or unavailable for a period of time (such as financial decisions while you are overseas on a trip - this is usually documented in a general power of attorney).

A power of attorney is used during your lifetime. After you die, your Will is the legal document that must be followed.
