Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida
Residence on legal forms when out of country
I will be leaving the country in 6 weeks and will be gone for a year. I want to give my father power of attorney in case something urgent happens in the U.S. while I am away. Different states have different requirements for this and other documents I'd like to get in order (health directive, will, etc.). I am currently residing in Florida, my parents reside in Texas. Which state's legal requirements should I use?

It depends on several factors -- where are the assets that you want him to have access to/control of? You should call an attorney to discuss your needs and make sure you get the right documents.
