In this document, you choose in advance a person you trust, who knows your values and will act in your best interest in moments when you cannot do so yourself.

What exactly is an enduring power of attorney?
An enduring power of attorney is a legal document in which you determine in advance who can handle your affairs if you are unable to do so yourself.
It can include medical, financial, and personal powers, and define exactly what the attorney is allowed and not allowed to do.
The document allows you to maintain control over the important decisions of your life, even when you are not legally competent to act on your own.
Why is it important to draw up an enduring power of attorney with Adv. Shay Shalom?
Because it is not enough to fill out a form – it is important to understand the meaning of each clause and its legal implications.
Adv. Shay Shalom, with decades of experience in the field, ensures that your document is valid, clear, and personally tailored to your needs.
He makes sure that there are no mistakes that could cause problems in the future, and that every word in the document serves you alone.
What is the difference between an enduring power of attorney and guardianship?
In an enduring power of attorney – you are the one who chooses who will act on your behalf. In guardianship, on the other hand, the court appoints a guardian only after you have lost competence, sometimes against your will or values.
An enduring power of attorney gives you freedom and choice in advance – so you decide how your life will be conducted even if you cannot speak for yourself in the future.
When is it advisable to draw up an enduring power of attorney?
There is no “right” age, but the recommendation is not to wait until the last minute.
Many people draw it up from the age of 50 and up, or when they are facing a significant change – surgery, a long trip, or a change in health status.
It is a responsible and wise step, like life insurance – which ensures peace of mind for you and your family.
How do you choose the right attorney?
Choose someone you trust completely – someone who knows you, your values, and your priorities.
Adv. Shay Shalom will help you choose correctly, and will explain how to avoid common mistakes such as appointing an unstable person, geographically distant, or with a personal interest.
A correct choice ensures true peace – because you know that the decisions will be made exactly as you wanted.
Is an enduring power of attorney also valid after death?
No. An enduring power of attorney is valid only as long as the principal is alive. After death, the responsibility passes to the will and the estate.
Adv. Shay Shalom recommends that most of his clients also draw up a will at the same time, in order to create a correct legal continuum and prevent future disputes between the heirs.
Summary – Responsibility for your future starts now
An enduring power of attorney is a gift of security for yourself and your family – one document that restores your control, even when life takes an unexpected turn.
Adv. Shay Shalom will personally accompany you, explain every detail, and build for you a customized document that ensures true peace of mind.
