I just did a Will for a client that will replace his previous one.  The lawyer who did the previous one filed it with the Surrogate's Court for safe keeping.  My client is uncomfortable having it there even though it is no longer valid, but he cannot go in person to pick it up due to his age, illness, etc.  Can a Power of Attorney pick it up for him?  What other options are there?
