Power of Attorney Seminars
There is perhaps no more difficult task one can perform than becoming responsible for another person's assets and/or health care. Too often, people are unaware of what is expected of them and they make innocent mistakes that create problems for themselves and family members.

Please join us for an informative overview of how to use powers of attorny (POA) properly. The seminar includes a discussion on the importance of holding a POA, different types of POAs, and the legal issues involving people who serve as an agent under a POA. The instructor is Certified Elder Law Attorney William R. Blumer from Leisawitz Heller.
