APPOINTING SUBSTITUTE ATTORNEYS IN A POWER OF ATTORNEY FOR PERSONAL CARE
The person or persons whom you have asked to be your Attorney(s) may have died, moved away, had a stroke, become incompetent, or refuse to act. It is therefore a good idea, where there is a danger of that happening (e.g. your spouse is aging), to appoint a Substitute Attorney or Substitute Attorneys.
If you appoint more than one Substitute Attorney, do you want the flexibility of having them acting Jointly and Severally or the security of having them acting Jointly?
