What is a durable power of attorney in Texas?
A durable power of attorney allows a chosen agent to handle financial or property matters if the principal authorizes it and the document is valid. The word durable generally means the authority can continue after incapacity. Because it can grant significant authority, the agent and powers should be chosen carefully.
This is general information for Texas readers, not legal advice for a specific matter. The right answer can change when documents, deadlines, family conflict, taxes, business interests, fiduciary duties, or court requirements are involved.
