Planning for the management of your finances? This program brings together the legal and banking requirements to guide clients through the aspects of using a Power of Attorney for Property.
Attendees will be walked step-by-step through considerations in the creation of a Power of Attorney by Lemont attorney Sarah Forzley Pocic, gaining a clear understanding of how the document is prepared, what decisions are involved, and how to ensure it reflects their intentions.
