What is a Power of Attorney?
A Power of Attorney (POA) is a legal document that allows a person (the principal) to grant another individual (the agent or attorney-in-fact) the authority to make decisions on their behalf. POAs can cover financial matters, healthcare decisions, or other legal affairs.
Creating a POA is an important step in protecting your interests and ensuring that someone you trust can act for you when needed. Proper notarization is required in California to validate the document and ensure it is legally enforceable.
