New York power of attorney forms give individuals the right to choose someone else to handle their financial or medical affairs. Depending on the form selected, the person giving power (“principal”) can make the form last for a specific time period or for the remainder of their life, referred to as “durable.”
It is common for the agent to be a spouse or a close family member as it is highly recommended to be a trusted individual. The form can be used immediately after signing under the State requirements.
