How many Attorneys would you like to appoint? (not including any Substitute Attorneys)

One.
I would like to appoint two or more Attorneys.

Appoint an Attorney

In this section tell us who you would like to appoint as your Attorney. Your Attorney has the legal authority to mange your financial affairs, such as buying and selling property, and accessing your bank account to pay bills – subject to any restrictions under the appointment.

Your Attorney must always act in your best interest, and cannot mix your money with theirs. There are civil and criminal consequences if your Attorney acts contrary to their duties.

You will have the opportunity to tell us when the appointment is to commence, and to nominate a Substitute Attorney in the event that your Attorney is unable to act.

Enduring Power of Attorney

A General Power of Attorney will cease to operate if you lose capacity. If you would like the Power of Attorney to continue (or endure) after you lose capacity then the document is an Enduring Power of Attorney.

I would like the power of my Attorneys:

To continue in the event I lose capacity (Enduring Power of Attorney)
To cease in the event I lose capacity (General Power of Attorney).

Commencement Date

I would like the Power of Attorney to commence:

Once the Attorney has accepted his/her appointment by signing the document.
Once a medical practitioner considers that I am unable to manage my affairs (and provides a document to that effect).
Once my Attorney considers that I need assistance managing my affairs.
Other.

List when the Power of Attorney is to commence:

Appoint an Enduring Guardian

Your Attorney does not have the power to make Health decisions for you.

You can appoint an Enduring Guardian to make Health Decisions for you if you are unable to make health decisions for yourself.

Would you like us to also draft an Appointment of Enduring Guardian for you?

Yes – I want my Attorneys to also be my Enduring Guardians.
Yes – But I want to appoint different people to be my Enduring Guardians.
No – Not at this stage thanks.

Joint or Joint & Several Attorneys

You can appoint your Attorneys to act Jointly, or Jointly & Severally.

If you appoint your Attorneys to act Jointly your Attorneys must all act together.

If you appoint your Attorneys to act Jointly & Severally your Attorneys may act individually, or together with the other Attorneys if they choose. A Joint & Several appointment may be preferable if the Attorneys cannot always act together, for example if they live apart.
