Lasting Power of Attorney in Israel: A lasting power of attorney agreement allows you to determine today who will take care of you in the future and how, if you are no longer able to manage your affairs. It is an alternative to guardianship that does not require court approval. This future legal arrangement allows an individual, while still capable, to decide who they want to appoint to manage their affairs in the future. The alternative enables the appointing person to give prior instructions to for the time when they will no longer be able to understand their property, personal, or medical matters. There is no need for court approval to bring the document into effect. The document is prepared by a lawyer who has been trained by the general guardian, it must be deposited with the general guardian, and it comes into effect when the appointing person no longer understands. The notice of activation is sent to the general guardian by the agent.
This alternative is suitable for a fully competent person, clear-minded and understanding the meaning of the document, who wishes to predetermine how their life will be managed in the future in case they are unable to manage their own affairs.
