What is incapacity protection?
Incapacity protection is planning that allows you to control the continued management of your medical, financial and administrative affairs in the event of your incapacity. If you become incapacitated and do not have protection, the court will appoint a guardian to manage your affairs. Incapacity protection, typically achieved through an Advance Medical Directive and a Durable General Power of Attorney, allows you to decide who will make decisions for you and avoids the court’s involvement.
