If your family has not yet formalised an Enduring Power of Attorney (EPA), the process can feel like a daunting hurdle when you aren't physically present. ElderEase offers a specialised coordination service designed to remove the friction and get these vital protections in place.

​

We act as the local facilitator, ensuring the "human" side of the legal process is handled with care and efficiency:

​

• Linking the Family: We coordinate sessions to bring together the relevant family members and your loved one, ensuring everyone is on the same page before the legal process begins.

• Legal Liaison: We are happy to work directly with the legal executive at your family’s chosen law firm to handle the local logistics—such as transport to appointments or organising home visits for signatures.

• Local Expertise: If you don’t have a preferred firm, we can connect you with our network of trusted local law firms in Whangarei and Kerikeri who specialise in elder law and understand the unique needs of our clients.

​

Important Note

​​

ElderEase provides coordination and administrative support to facilitate the EPA process; however, we do not provide legal or financial advice. Under New Zealand law, EPA documents must be witnessed and certified by a legal executive or solicitor. Our role is to manage the logistics, ensuring the process is as seamless and stress-free as possible for both the senior and the sponsoring family.

​

The Value of Professional Coordination

 

By allowing ElderEase to manage the coordination of your EPA setup, you ensure that:

​

1. The Senior is Supported: We provide a familiar, friendly face and manage the transport to appointments, ensuring your loved one feels comfortable and empowered rather than overwhelmed.

2. The Legal Professional is Prepared: We help gather the necessary lifestyle and property information ahead of time, allowing the legal executive to work more efficiently and accurately.

3. The Family is Informed: You receive regular updates on the progress of the documentation, providing peace of mind even if you are on the other side of the world.
