Guides

Acting as an Attorney or Representative for someone can feel overwhelming. You want to help your person, but now you’re suddenly responsible for someone else’s finances and legal decisions or healthcare decisions. Add family dynamics, health issues, and time pressures, and it can quickly feel like more than you signed up for.

These guides are meant to give you that same starting point: to help you understand what’s expected of you, and show you how to manage the work, right through to the day your role comes to an end. Our goal with these guides is simple: to give you clear, practical tools to help you navigate your duties, and to reassure you that you don’t have to figure it out alone.
