Your Notary in Hamburg for powers of attorney and advance directives
Plan ahead – take responsibility early
A serious accident, sudden illness or the decline of mental capacity in old age – any of these can make it impossible to manage your own affairs. Those who have not made arrangements risk having important decisions made by a court-appointed guardian. With a notarial general power of attorney and advance directive, you decide in advance who will act on your behalf.

Patient decree – medical decisions in line with your wishes
Security for you, clarity for your loved ones
In a patient decree, you define which medical treatments you wish to receive or refuse in specific health situations. This declaration helps doctors, relatives, and authorized representatives to respect your values and preferences when you are no longer able to express yourself.
We support you with:
- Drafting a legally valid and medically precise patient decree
- Linking it with an existing lasting power of attorney
- Advising on specific instructions for typical medical situations (e.g. resuscitation, artificial nutrition, pain management)
A patient decree provides security – for you and your family.
Thinking about precaution in a holistic way
More than documents – forward-looking precaution
Precaution involves more than just legal documents – it also includes organizational measures. We recommend considering the following aspects together:
- Where are the documents stored?
- Who is aware of the power of attorney?
- How is access to accounts, contracts, and passwords regulated?
- Is the precaution adapted to your current life circumstances?
As notaries, we help you establish your precautionary arrangements in a comprehensive and individual way – also in coordination with spouses, children, or business partners.
