## When to use it

Use when a South Australian client wants to appoint a donee under an enduring power of attorney for financial and property matters.

## Used for these tasks

- [Draft an enduring power of attorney (financial) from the instructions](https://ailawframework.com/practice/elder-law-and-powers-of-attorney-guardianship.md#A18-T1-R1)
- [Build the execution and witnessing plan for an enduring instrument before signing](https://ailawframework.com/practice/elder-law-and-powers-of-attorney-guardianship.md#A18-X20260927-1)

## How AI may be used

AI may help prepare the form from the client's confirmed instructions inside the firm's checked process and plan the signing and witnessing; the lawyer takes the instructions alone with the client, checks capacity and every entry in each instrument, and supervises execution.

**AI may:**

- Transfer confirmed instructions (attorneys, how they act, when the power starts, limits) into a checking sheet for the lawyer
- Check the completed form against the instructions and list every difference
- Build the execution plan: who signs, which witnesses are eligible, and the order of signing and acceptance
- Draft a plain-language explanation of the signed instrument for the client, for the lawyer to check

**AI must not:**

- Must not take instructions from anyone other than the person making the instrument
- Must not assess the person's capacity or whether they are acting freely
- Must not choose the attorneys, the way they act, or any limits or conditions
- Must not sign, witness or certify anything

**The lawyer checks:**

- The current kit forms are used and completed as the kit instructs
- Donees, how they act, and any conditions match the client's instructions
- Execution and witnessing follow the kit
- If the donee will deal with real estate, the power is lodged at Land Services SA
- Client told how to revoke: written notice to the donee, telling the bank and others, and lodging a revocation with Land Services SA if the power was lodged
