Durable power of attorney

I have a General Durable Power of Attorney over my mother and she has been widowed and remarried since it was signed. Her last name has changed. Is the document still legal or do we need a new one?

Re: Durable power of attorney

It is probably still effective, but given her change in circumstances, you probably should have her estate/financial matters reviewed by an attorney. A Power of Attorney is not the same as full estate planning. For more info., please contact my office at (248)8513171.
