Power of Attorney Template | Free Power of Attorney Template | Legal Document Software

A power of attorney is a legal document by which one person grants power to another person to act on behalf of the person granting the power. The person granting this power is called the Principal and the person to whom he is giving this power is called an Agent.

Generally a power of attorney can be granted without the need for a written document or instrument; however there are some occasions when the law demands a written power of attorney to recognise the agent as legitimately appointed by the principal to act on his behalf.
