New Hampshire Power of Attorney Forms


New Hampshire power of attorney forms help residents select proper representation in regard to financial, medical, and other important personal or business affairs. Some of these documents, when properly executed, will stay in effect throughout the principal’s life, regardless of disability or any form of mental or physical incapacitation. Other forms are used to establish a transfer of power and authority in a more temporary manner. The main purpose is to ultimately hand over certain powers to a trustworthy individual so that the principal does not have to deal with such matters themselves.
