Powers of Attorney

Powers of Attorney in Metro West Boston

Ensuring Your Assets & Estate Are Protected

Although it is something most people don’t want to think about, you might find yourself in a situation where you are unable to communicate your wishes or make important decisions for yourself. From serious accidents to devastating illnesses, you need to make a comprehensive estate plan that includes powers of attorneys so that someone you trust can make major decisions on your behalf.

A power of attorney is a legal document that gives another person the authority to act on your behalf when you are unable to do so yourself. With a power of attorney, you can decide if you want this authority to go into effect immediately, on a specific date, or at any time when you become incapacitated. Powers of attorney are terminated on the specified date or when you pass away.

The person designated to be your agent under a power of attorney can do the following things:

  • Pay your bills
  • Manage your financial affairs
  • Make important estate planning decisions
  • Handle stocks and bonds
  • Access your bank accounts
  • Buy and sell real estate
  • File income tax returns and handle tax matters

    “I highly recommend Marsden Law for anyone dealing with the financial (and emotional) needs of caring for an elder parent.”

    My family and I are just starting the Medicaid application process for our Mom, who is now on Long Term Care. Marsden Law is handling all of this for us. After our first meeting with Jay, we went away with a much clearer understanding of how we need to proceed to take care of all of our Mom’s future financial needs. Jay took the time to explain everything in great detail and made it easy for us to understand what we need to do going forward. Applying for Medicaid is an overwhelming process, to say the least, and we have the utmost confidence in Jay and his team, that they will be there for us, through the entire process. I highly recommend Marsden Law for anyone dealing with the financial (and emotional) needs of caring for an elder parent.
