Durable Power of Attorney Services in Denver, CO

Planning ahead means choosing someone you trust. A durable power of attorney lets you appoint a person to make financial or legal decisions on your behalf if you’re ever unable to do so yourself. At MMK Law, we help individuals and families in Denver and the surrounding areas understand this important tool and draft power of attorney documents that reflect their wishes.

What Is a Durable Power of Attorney?

A durable power of attorney (POA) is a legal document that allows someone else to act for you in financial, legal, or property matters. “Durable” means the authority remains valid if you become incapacitated.



There are several types of POAs under Colorado law, including:

  • General POA – Grants broad authority over financial matters.
  • Limited or Special POA – Authorizes someone to act in specific situations.
  • Springing POA – Only takes effect when a specific event occurs (such as a diagnosis of incapacity).

Why It's Smart To Have One In Place

No one expects a sudden illness, accident, or cognitive decline—but it happens. Without a valid POA, your loved ones may need to petition the court for guardianship or conservatorship. Having a durable POA in place:

  • Helps avoid costly legal delays
  • Ensures someone you trust can act on your behalf
  • Gives peace of mind to both you and your family

  • Draft durable POAs that meet Colorado legal standards
  • Customize authority to your preferences and needs
