<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">HI John, <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">I am also a great believer in keeping things simple and this is why I am uneasy with drafting something so confusing. I have explained and discouraged, however, the husband really wants to include such language,
 so I am reaching out to see if there are other attorneys that have dealt with this or just reassurance that this is a bad idea.
<br>
<br>
Part of their thinking is each spouse wants the other as first choice but then 2 alternates from their own respective families, however, there are circumstances in which they would agree to have for example the wife's father to act etc. So they want the POA
 to recreate scenarios that would allow them to do that. However, in my opinion it is confusing and can create issues later because essentially they are creating multiple POAs in a document and in each scenario the attorney in fact would be different.
<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">For example, if both are incapacitated, they may agree to have the wife's father as an alternate for both of them. However, if say wife dies, then the husband would want his own father as attorney in fact and so forth... Basically it matters
 to them because they might be willing to have the same alternates in some scenarios, but want their own family members as alternate in other scenarios if the other spouse is out of the picture. So yes essentially they would want the wife's father to resign
 if the wife died while he was acting as attorney in fact for both and then allow the husband's father to be the attorney in fact for the husband.
