When Do You Need a POA?

The best time to create a POA is now, while you're healthy and can make informed decisions about who you trust to handle your affairs.

Here are the most common situations where having a POA is essential.

Planning for the Future

Establish comprehensive protection before you need it, ensuring your wishes are properly honored if you become unable to make important decisions.

Health Concerns

If you're facing a serious illness or surgery, having a comprehensive healthcare POA ensures your medical wishes are properly followed.

Managing Complex Affairs

When you have multiple properties, businesses, or investments that require ongoing management and careful oversight.

Travel or Absence

For extended travel or temporary inability to handle affairs, a limited POA can effectively manage your specific needs.

"Justin Scott has been an absolute pleasure to work with. His expertise, professionalism, and dedication to addressing every concern surpassed my expectations.

"Help has been given to me within the parameters of my ability to visit the office. In a senior assisted living facility there are many limitations that faced me in gathering documentation. A personal visit, phone calls and email has allowed me to begin my legal processes... for which I am greatly appreciative and relieved. All staff, regardless of my reaching out for help, has been kind, and attentive to my needs and stressors."

"Working with Justin Scott and his ENTIRE office was fantastic!! I worked with Justin regarding my mom, Dawn and it was such a helpful and stress-free experience. Justin completely eased our minds which in my opinion is PRICELESS!! I HIGHLY recommend Elder Legal Partners to both my friends and family. If I could give more than 5 out of 5 stars, I would."

"I would like to personally thank you for all the assistance you provided. For me you were a beacon of light to guide me thru a hectic and difficult time with professionalism, courtesy and kindness. When I received much well meaning free advice that lead me to many dead ends, your office not only gave sound advice, but also found an excellent place for Mom's final weeks. The trusts you set up and your guidance with settling the estate were most helpful. I personally cannot thank you enough."

"As a fellow estate planning attorney, I have known Justin personally for a few years. He is not only extremely knowledgeable in estate planning and elder law, but he is also very easy to have a conversation with. Let's be honest, many attorneys are arrogant, stuck-up, and make people feel uncomfortable. If anyone in this part of town reaches out for advice, I send them to Justin's office. He provides great advice without over-complicating things."

"Justin is not just a gifted practitioner of law, but he truly is an advocate for the elderly. If you want a dog in the fight for you, your parents, grandparents, etc., I can't think of anyone that stands in his league. Even though I wasn't seeking advice on medical care in my particular case, it was a pleasant surprise that he has authored several enlightening books on a variety of aging topics. I wouldn't hesitate even a second to recommend Justin and his team."

Jolene Schwartz

"Justin and his team are fantastic, pro-active and very knowledgeable. I spoke with 3 Elder Attorney's before meeting Justin who had the experience and know how that I needed. I was not prepared when my brilliant husband was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, but everyone at Elder Legal Partners was so compassionate and supportive, I am so grateful for their guidance."
