Major changes that affect everyone who has or may need to have a Durable Power of Attorney went into effect October 1, 2011. It is critical that everyone who has a Durable Power of Attorney or may be an Agent for someone understands these changes. A Durable Power of Attorney is an extremely important and powerful document. You should consult with a Florida attorney who specializes in the area of law that currently affects your life. A Durable Power of Attorney form copied from a book or drafted by a non-lawyer may not be valid if all the provisions of the new Florida Durable Power of Attorney law are not followed. There are now specific options, duties and powers that you may elect to allow your Agent to perform. A generic form document will not advise you on the importance of your choices.
