- Q. Is a certified adult name change order sufficient to attach to an existing Power of Attorney in Texas?
- A: Statutory Durable Powers of Attorney are tricky in that different financial institutions have different requirements. While the certified order may suffice for purposes of one financial institution, it may very well not for another. The safest bet would be to create new powers of attorney which can be done fairly inexpensively with a qualified Estate Planning firm.
