#62 Why Your Personal EPOA Won’t Protect Your Firm


Listen Later

Getting excited about your well-earned Christmas break?

There's just one more thing I need you to add to your end of year checklist... the final piece of the puzzle that every law firm owner needs to have sorted - especially if you’re the sole director of an incorporated legal practice (ILP).

Because here’s the catch:

  • Your personal enduring power of attorney doesn’t cover your law firm.
  • And your law society or institute can’t step in without proper authority.
  • In this episode, I explain why this gap in your risk management could become a disaster if something unexpected happens, and how an Entity Power of Attorney can fix it.

    We’ll cover:

    • Why your law firm needs its own emergency triage plan
    • How an Entity POA protects your business, staff, and clients if you’re suddenly unavailable
    • What the law society/institute and insurer actually needs to take control if the worst happens
    • How to put this protection in place quickly (so you can relax over Christmas)
    • Ready to get it sorted? Our Entity Power of Attorney precedent has everything you need.
