Everyone should have a current legal Will. Many people put off writing a Will because they prefer not to think about their death. Sooner or later, everyone needs a legal Will. Every person over the age of 18 should consider making a Will and ensure the document is legally valid, up to date and safely stored.
A general power of attorney is a legal document that allows you (the 'principal') to nominate one or more persons (referred to as an 'attorney') to act on your behalf. A general power of attorney gives the attorney the authority, if you choose, to manage your legal and financial affairs, including buying and selling real estate, shares and other assets for you, operating your bank accounts, and spending money on your behalf.

The power of attorney ceases if you lose your mental capacity after its execution. If you wish the power of attorney to continue if you lose mental capacity, use the Enduring Power of Attorney prescribed form.
