Start Here with Power of Attorney for Your 18+ Young Adult
When your child turns 18, it’s a proud moment. They’re officially an adult, stepping into independence with college plans, travel dreams, or new job opportunities.
But what many families don’t realize is that your role as a parent changes dramatically, especially in the eyes of the law.
Once your child turns 18, you can no longer access their medical records, speak to their doctor, or handle emergencies on their behalf—unless you have the proper legal documents in place.
That’s where we come in.
Introducing: Power of Attorney Prep for Young Adults
At Russo Law Offices, we understand this transition can feel overwhelming. That’s why we created a streamlined service specifically for families with newly turned 18-year-olds.
We make it easy for you to:
Schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation to get your questions answered
Book quickly with same-week availability
Prepare Power of Attorney documents that reflect your child's needs
Support multiple family members—ideal for siblings or students heading out at the same time
Get peace of mind knowing your documents are prepared by a trusted local attorney
Why Is This So Important?
Emergencies don’t wait. If your young adult is hospitalized, traveling, or needs help with financial or legal matters, you’ll want to be able to step in right away. But without Power of Attorney documents in place, you could face delays, denial of access, or worse—be completely shut out.
Having a POA means:
You can speak to medical professionals and access records
You can assist with bank accounts, tuition, housing, or other financial matters
You can act quickly if your child is out of the country or unavailable
Let’s Make This Simple
We’ve supported hundreds of families through this transition, and we’re here to support yours too. Whether you’re just starting to ask questions or ready to book, we’ll meet you where you are.
