If you become incapacitated without a Durable Power of Attorney, your family must petition California Superior Court for a Conservatorship — costing $10,000-$25,000 in legal fees and 2-4 months of court delays. Our attorney-reviewed POA costs just $150.
The only online POA service backed by a licensed California law firm. Drafted for bank acceptance. Compliant with CA Probate Code §4401. Flat $150 fee — attorney review INCLUDED.
Bank-Ready Documents | Valid in all 58 CA Counties | Verified Bar #208356
Without a Durable Power of Attorney, if you become incapacitated your family faces:
A $150 Durable Power of Attorney prevents ALL of this. Your designated agent can act immediately without any court involvement.
Buy, sell, refinance, or manage your California real estate. Record deeds, pay property taxes, handle HOA matters, and manage rental properties.
Access checking/savings accounts, manage brokerage accounts, make deposits and withdrawals, pay bills, and handle safe deposit boxes.
File IRS returns, handle California Franchise Tax Board matters, apply for benefits (Social Security, Medicare), and manage government correspondence.
Manage 401(k), IRA, pension accounts. Take required minimum distributions, change beneficiaries, and handle rollovers.
Access cryptocurrency wallets, manage online accounts, handle digital subscriptions, and control social media and email accounts.
Every POA is personally reviewed by Attorney Rozsa Gyene (Bar #208356) for CA Probate Code compliance and bank acceptance. Generic forms get rejected. Ours don't.
No hidden fees. No subscriptions. Attorney review included.
One-time fee. Valid for life.
Tip: POA is included in our Will Package ($150) and Living Trust Package ($400)
A Power of Attorney is essential, but it's only one piece of the puzzle. Most California homeowners combine POA with a Living Trust to avoid the 18-24 month probate backlog at courts like Stanley Mosk or the Lamoreaux Justice Center.
Yes. A California Power of Attorney created online is legally valid if it meets CA Probate Code §4121 requirements: it must be in writing, dated, signed by you, and either acknowledged before a notary public OR signed by two adult witnesses. Our attorney-reviewed documents meet all California legal requirements.
A General POA automatically terminates if you become mentally incapacitated — exactly when you need it most. A Durable POA contains specific language under CA Probate Code §4124 that keeps it valid even if you lose mental capacity. This is essential to avoid a court-ordered conservatorship.
Banks are liable if they honor a fraudulent or invalid POA. Generic forms from stationery stores or national websites often lack California-specific language, proper acknowledgment clauses, or current legal requirements. Our attorney-reviewed POA includes exact statutory language that California banks recognize and accept.
You choose: an Immediate POA takes effect as soon as you sign it (useful if you want your agent to help manage finances now). A Springing POA only takes effect if you become incapacitated, typically verified by one or two physicians.
Yes, you can revoke your POA at any time while you're mentally competent. Simply execute a written revocation and notify your agent and any institutions (banks, etc.) that have a copy of the original POA. We provide revocation forms with your package.

— Patricia W., Riverside
"Chase Bank rejected the generic POA form we downloaded online. Attorney Gyene's version was accepted immediately. Worth every penny."
— James & Carol M., Irvine
"As a financial advisor, I've seen families destroyed by not having a POA. I recommend Living Trust California to all my clients. The attorney review makes all the difference."
