Where do I go to get power of attorney?

Isthisrealyreal Oct 2020
I got my dads from the attorney general website of my state. (FREE) It has all the statutes for the state and I have not had any problems with it being accepted.

If the finances allow, I recommend going to www.nelf.org and finding a certified elder law attorney in your area, they will help set up all important documents and give guidance for your specific situation.

Who is requesting a Power of Attorney? Is this for yourself or someone else wants a Power of Attorney?

In any case, I used an "Elder Law Attorney" as they are up-to-date on your State laws regarding what is needed in that legal document. My Power of Attorney was 18 pages long.

Proper paperwork can be downloaded (for a reasonable fee) at Legalzoom.com or Rocketlawyer.com, or make an appointment with an elder law attorney.

To the person for whom you wish to exercise it.

Power of Attorney is given by a person of sound mind to a person he or she trusts to act for him or her. It is not "got" by the person who wants to act for someone else.
