Enduring Power of Attorney (EPOA) - Being effective when survive but mentally incapable
Through the making of an EPOA, a client can appoint one or more appropriate attorney(s) in advance when he/she is mentally capable so that the attorney(s) can take care of the client's financial matters in Hong Kong or pay the living and medical expenses for the client out of his/her assets in Hong Kong according to his/her advance instructions in the event that he/she subsequently becomes mentally incapacitated due to dementia or other serious illness or accident and is no longer able to manage his/her own financial matters.
Our legal services include:- Draft and witness the signing of an EPOA under the EPOA Ordinance of Hong Kong
- Arrange for the registration of an EPOA in the High Court to ensure future use
