| A Power of Attorney
is a legal instrument that is used to delegate legal authority to
another. The person who signs (or executes) a Power of Attorney is
called the Principal. The power of Attorney gives legal authority
to another person (called an Agent or Attorney-in-Fact) to make property,
financial and other legal decisions for the Principal.
A
Principal can give an Agent broad legal authority, or very limited
authority. The Power of Attorney is frequently used to help in the
event of a Principal's illness or disability, or in legal transactions
where the principal cannot be present to sign necessary legal documents.
It can be either for all purposes ("General") or for a
specific purpose ("Special" or "Limited").
