Agent Under Durable Power of Attorney
Helping agents act with confidence and clarity
From financial management to legal decisions, we provide guidance so you can serve confidently as a durable power of attorney agent.
Welcome to our specialized legal services, specifically designed for individuals with DPOA over another person in Florida. If entrusted with a Durable Power of Attorney, you face unique responsibilities and complex decisions you must make. Our elder law firm is committed to guiding someone with DPOA over another through the complexities of their role, ensuring that all legal and ethical obligations are met with precision and understanding.
Our services include detailed guidance on fiduciary duties, Medicaid planning, and long-term care planning, all tailored to the specific needs of someone with DPOA over another. We aim to make your journey as a DPOA agent as straightforward and stress-free as possible.
To start, someone with DPOA over another is called an “Agent” or “Attorney-In-Fact” under Florida law. I’ll use both terms in this article to help you with the terminology, but it is easier to say, “I have POA,” than “I’m an agent.”
Our law firm offers comprehensive guidance for individuals appointed as fiduciaries, including those with DPOA over another. We understand the weight of this responsibility, which involves significant duties, time commitments, and liabilities. We emphasize the importance of understanding these fiduciary responsibilities before accepting such a fiduciary position and advise on the procedures if you resign from your appointed role.
As someone with DPOA over another, navigating Medicaid eligibility and asset protection can be complex. Our expert Medicaid planning services are tailored to assist you in developing strategies that protect your financial legacy while maximizing benefits. Our skilled attorneys understand the intricacies of Medicaid rules and provide personalized guidance, ensuring that the long-term care needs of your loved one are met without jeopardizing your family’s financial security. Our approach delivers peace of mind, ensuring necessary care is received without financial stress.
