My wife and I are likely going to be getting power of Attorney for each other. Would this require seeing a notary or would a lawyer such as Spencer be suffice.

Thank you for any responses.

You should know by now that a notary is not a lawyer. A Notario however is a highly qualified lawyer appointed by the State to service a particular district. On the other hand  Spenser (who is a lawyer)can give you the correct advice. Give him a call.

We did our power of attorney with the lawyer working in Notario 2 office. It included our medical directives as well. Wills are usually done by notarios.

Would a power of attorney be considered in the same category as a will?

A power of attorney is effective while you are alive. When you croak the will takes over and a power of attorney means nothing.
