As specialists in Enduring Powers of Attorney, we regularly talk to clients about the importance of choosing an attorney carefully. Our partner Rebecca Tetlow recently spoke to Bina Brown at The Australian Financial Review about decision making capacity and choosing an attorney who will respect your values and wishes.

"Capacity is decision-specific, says Rebecca Tetlow, Tetlow Legal partner and wills and estate specialist.
Even if someone can’t manage their own finances or manage their own portfolio, they may have the capacity to decide where they want to live, she says... an attorney must respect the dignity of the older person, respect their quality of life and allow them to participate in the decisions as much as they are able."

Give careful thought to who acts on your behalf when you can no longer make your own decisions as even your children may not put your needs first.

Our partners Rebecca Tetlow and Emma Tetlow featured in the Australian Financial Review for their role in tax reforms to granny flat arrangements.

"Elder law specialists Rebecca Tetlow and Emma Bragg, both partners of Canberra-based Tetlow Legal, saw the gap between what Centrelink says you can do and the tax aspects of granny flat arrangements and took it up with Age Discrimination Commission Kay Patterson to address the issue."

We're passionate about promoting the rights of older persons and helping families who wish to enter into granny flat and family care arrangements.

Before a home transfer or exchange of cash for the right to live somewhere, it pays to be aware of Centrelink and CGT rules.
