Power of Attorney for Business Owners in Alberta
A legally valid power of attorney built to Alberta’s Wills and Succession Act by a licensed attorney — written with business owners in mind.
What business owners should know
- A business does not run itself while an estate is settled. Without a plan, staff, customers and value can be lost in the gap.
- Say who takes over or winds down the business, and give your executor authority to act quickly.
- A Power of Attorney matters more for owners — incapacity can stop a business as effectively as death.
- Check whether a shareholders' or partnership agreement already governs what happens to your share.
- Alberta follows Alberta law — your power of attorney is governed by the Wills and Succession Act.
- An Alberta will must be signed by you and witnessed by two people who are not beneficiaries.
- Alberta recognises holograph wills written wholly in your own handwriting and signed by you.
