Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a Power of Attorney and Guardianship?
A Power of Attorney is a document you sign while you have capacity appointing someone to act for you. Guardianship is appointed by VCAT when a person has already lost capacity and has not made a POA.
Can I appoint more than one attorney?
Yes. You can appoint multiple attorneys to act jointly (both must agree) or severally (either can act). We advise on which arrangement suits your circumstances.
What if I think someone is misusing a Power of Attorney?
Contact us immediately. We can apply to VCAT to revoke the POA, investigate suspected elder abuse, and protect the interests of the vulnerable person.
