The Alberta AGTA is new law that came into force on October 30, 2009. It replaced the 30-year-old Dependent Adults Act (DAA). When an adult needs assistance making decisions, the AGTA provides a variety of options that range from having a person provide some help in making decisions to having a person take over the decision-making completely. The exact options depend on the kinds of decisions being made.
Here we have a conversation with lawyer, Doris Bonora. It is one of several videos in this session where we find out what legal and financial documents need to be prepared and what needs to be done to ensure the concerns and wishes of the person living with dementia are met.
In this video, Doris offers some general information about the Adult Guardianship and Trusteeship Act (AGTA). For specific, detailed legal advice, it is important to consult with a lawyer directly.
