Everyone can benefit from having a Financial Power of Attorney in place because it allows someone that you trust to take care of all of your financial accounts such as your bank account, credit cards, income, bills, government benefits, rent or mortgage, business, or any other financial matter. It gives you protection and peace of mind.
