What is the name of your state? Virginia
Both of my parents are in ill health (father particularly), and my brother and I are developing a separate durable power of attorney form for each of them. I have several questions:
1. I assume I should develop both an "immediate form," and one to be effective "upon disability," plus an advance medical directive. I'll need six forms total for the two of them. Is this correct?
2. Can both my brother and I be listed together on each form as the "agents," or must just one person be solely designated? We want to both share in the process, or step in when the other is unavailable for some reason. This is not an issue of personal trust.
3. If we cannot be together on the form, but can both be "agents," do we need six separate forms (as described in my first question) for each of us (i.e., a total of 12 forms) to develop and execute with a notary?
