A Representation Agreement is a legal document that allows you to appoint someone you trust to make personal care and healthcare decisions on your behalf if you are ever unable to do so. Unlike a Power of Attorney, which deals with finances and property, a Representation Agreement focuses on your well-being, medical treatment, and day-to-day personal needs.
At Kearns & Company Law Group, we make the process simple, thoughtful, and stress-free, so you can feel confident that your wishes will be honoured.
Life is unpredictable. Illness, accidents, or age-related challenges can leave you unable to speak for yourself. A Representation Agreement ensures that:
Without a Representation Agreement, critical care decisions may be delayed, or made by people who don’t fully understand your preferences.
If you lose the ability to make decisions and don’t have a Representation Agreement in place:
Family members may need to apply to court for authority, which can be costly, time-consuming, and stressful.
Health care providers may step in and make decisions without a clear understanding of your wishes.
Family conflicts may arise, as loved ones disagree on what care you would want.
Having this agreement in place is a gift to yourself and your family—it prevents confusion, delays, and unnecessary heartache.
