Check this out. It's from an article recently published in New York Employment Law:
“The Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) recently celebrated its 40th anniversary.”
Or this one, written by a lawyer:
"As you may have already heard or read, a Durable Power of Attorney (DPA) is a very important and beneficial document to have available, not only as you age, but at other times as well."
