MCKINNEY FINANCIAL POWER OF ATTORNEY

Making Sure Your Loved Ones Are Safe

A financial power of attorney is a legal document that allows you to appoint another person to handle your financial affairs in the event that you become unable to do so yourself. It is not the same as a medical power of attorney, which allows you to appoint someone to make medical decisions on your behalf if you cannot do so yourself.

If you become incapacitated, a power of attorney can make sure that your bills are paid and that your loved ones are provided for. It can also ensure that your investments remain secure and that your estate is distributed as you intended.

At Willingham Law Firm, PC., we can help you draft a financial power of attorney that is tailored to your specific needs. Our McKinney estate planning lawyers can help you make sure that your loved ones are provided for and that your financial affairs are in good hands after you are gone.
