The following is an edited excerpt from a booklet published by the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General in 2008 dealing with the subject of Powers of Attorney. The following is provided for general informational purposes only. The law relating to Powers of Attorney may vary considerably from one jurisdiction to another. For legal advice, consult a lawyer. JOINT OR SEPARATE ATTORNEYS You can name more than one person as your attorney for property. If you do this, you may decide whether they will share the job or divide their responsibilities. Or, you could name one person as your attorney and another person as a substitute or backup who could step in if your first choice resigns, gets sick or dies. If you have appointed more than one attorney, the law will require them to make decisions together unless you specifically give them permission to act separately. You can give permission to act separately by writing it down. If you don't do this, your attorneys will be required to act together all the time. There are some good reasons for giving your attorneys the flexibility to make decisions separately. Think, for example, about what would happen if one of your attorneys was temporarily unavailable because of sickness, vacation, or some other reason. If your attorneys are allowed to act separately, this will not be a problem. On the other hand, you may decide not to give this permission if you want to ensure that there is always a "double-check" regarding the decision. You may also wish to avoid the risk of inconsistent decisions that may occur as a result of attorneys acting separately. If you decide that your attorneys are going to make decisions together, it's a good idea to specify how disagreements get resolved. You might say that in a case of conflict, one attorney's decision will override the other's. Otherwise, your attorneys might have to go to Court and the judge will have to decide. If you have named more than one attorney and you want them to be able to act separately from one another, write the words "jointly and severally." ("Jointly and severally" is a legal term which means "together and separately.") If you don't do this, your attorneys will be required to make your financial decisions together at all times.
