Know Your Rights, Protect Your Future: Free Powers of Attorney Event in Philadelphia

Staying in control of your finances and your future starts with knowing your rights. As we age, it becomes even more important to choose someone we trust to act on our behalf and make sure our wishes are understood and respected. A free upcoming event in Philadelphia will give older Pennsylvanians practical information to help protect their wishes, their choices, and the assets they’ve worked so hard to build.   

On Wednesday, November 18, join the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office, the Pennsylvania Department of Aging, AARP Pennsylvania at the Drexel Kline Institute of Trial Advocacy – conveniently located in Center City Philadelphia at 12^th and Chestnut Streets – for a free event focused on protecting your rights and your financial future. Designed for Pennsylvanians age 60 and older, the event will provide helpful guidance and tools to help you make informed decisions and protect what matters most.
