Understanding Representation Agreements & How They Protect You
A Representation Agreement is a legal tool that lets you appoint someone you trust to make decisions about your personal care, health, and living arrangements if you become unable to do so yourself. It ensures your wishes are respected and provides clarity for your loved ones during challenging times.
Unlike a Power of Attorney, a Representation Agreement only covers personal and healthcare decisions, not financial or legal matters. It can include detailed instructions about your care, preferred living arrangements, medical treatments, or other personal preferences. By putting a Representation Agreement in place, you have the confidence that your voice will be heard, even when you cannot speak for yourself.

Questions About Representation Agreements
Creating a Representation Agreement can feel complicated, but understanding the basics will help you make informed choices. Here are some commonly asked questions:
A Representation Agreement is a legal document that allows you to appoint someone to make decisions about your personal care, healthcare, and living arrangements if you become incapable of making those decisions yourself.
A Power of Attorney handles legal and financial matters, while a Representation Agreement only covers personal care, health, and wellbeing. Many people have both documents in place to fully protect themselves.
You can appoint anyone you trust, such as a family member, close friend, or other responsible adult. The person must understand the responsibilities involved and be willing to act in your best interests.
Yes! You can include specific instructions or restrictions, such as preferred medical treatments, living arrangements, or personal care routines. This ensures your representative acts exactly as you want.
It only comes into effect if you become unable to make your own personal care or healthcare decisions. Until that point, you remain fully in control of your affairs.
While it’s not mandatory, having a lawyer ensures your Representation Agreement is legally valid, tailored to your needs, and clear for both your representative and your family. We make the process simple and stress-free.
