This article addresses the roles involved in the enduring power of attorney procedures in Israel.\u00a0 If you seek to draw up this type of power of attorney, it is advisable to be familiar with these frequently used terms.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Roles<\/p>\n

Main Titles and Roles Involved in Enduring Power of Attorney Procedures<\/b><\/h4>\n
    \n
  1. The Appointer (<\/span>HaMemane<\/span><\/i> or <\/span>HaMemana<\/span><\/i> in Hebrew).\u00a0 The appointer is the individual who initiates the enduring (or continuing) power of attorney for their own benefit, while mentally capable of making decisions pertaining to their future health and financial preferences.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. The Appointee (referred to as <\/span>Meyupeh Coakh<\/span><\/i>, or <\/span>Memune\/Memuna<\/span><\/i> in Hebrew).\u00a0 This is the person who, in the event the appointer is deemed mentally incapable of making sound decisions in the future, will manage issues related to the appointer\u2019s personal, legal and health issues.\u00a0 The appointer can choose multiple appointees to either manage different issues (one can manage health, another personal, another legal) or they can jointly share responsibility for all issues.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. The Lawyer (<\/span>Orech\/Orechet Din<\/span><\/i> in Hebrew) draws up the enduring power of attorney according to the wishes of the appointer for the appointee, which helps avoid potential future conflicts and disagreements as well as a court-appointed legal guardian (called <\/span>apotropus<\/span><\/i> in Hebrew) in the future. (See our article on the reasons why you should have this type<\/a> of power of attorney).\u00a0 It is essential to work with qualified lawyers; only lawyers who have obtained certain qualifications are permitted to draft this document.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Informed Individuals (<\/span>Adam Meyuda<\/span><\/i> in Hebrew).\u00a0 The appointer can specify that the appointee\u2019s future decisions should be known to the informed individuals, and the appointer can indicate which decisions specific individuals should be informed about (certain people for health decisions, others for financial decisions, etc.).\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Other Important Issues to Know About<\/b><\/h4>\n

    The General Apotropus\u2019s Office (also known as the<\/span> Administrator General and the Official Receiver\u2019s Office<\/span><\/a>) keeps a database with a copy of an enduring power of attorney, which is only accessible once a person becomes mentally unfit to make their own decisions.\u00a0 Once your lawyer draws up this document, they will send a copy to this office.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Having an enduring power of attorney helps you avoid undesired and unnecessary conflict in the future.\u00a0 That said, in the event that the appointee begins making decisions that the informed individuals believe violate the terms of the power of attorney, they are within their rights to bring the issue to court.\u00a0 A clear, detailed power of attorney will help you avoid long, drawn out cases in the future.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
