A Power of Attorney, and an Enduring Guardianship is recommended for everyone. These are commonly prepared in conjunction with preparation of a Will. However, these are effective while you are alive, whereas a Will only comes into force upon your death.

Many people think they do not need one, and with good fortune that may be so. Circumstances do change, and not having a Power of Attorney or an Enduring Guardianship can be devastating on your family in the event you are incapacitated though illness, accident or injury and you do not have a valid Power of Attorney or Enduring Guardianship.

Who will look after your financial affairs, and your personal/medical needs. Your spouse? Your children? Your former spouse? Your best friend? It would be hard enough on your family and friends in the event of incapacity without these documents in place, without having the then work out if they can, and what steps to take and how. Also what limitations will be imposed on them as regards to your needs. Could the Public Trustee be appointed if you do not have a Will or Power of Attorney? The answer to that is yes. Having someone who neither knows you or your family making decisions about where you live, you needs and treatment, what funds can be made available to your family, if any, is frightening.
