How to fill out general power of attorney

How to fill out a general power of attorney:

1. Begin by gathering all necessary information. This includes the full name and contact details of the person granting the power of attorney (the "principal") and the person being appointed as the attorney-in-fact (the "agent").
2. Specify the powers granted. The general power of attorney allows the agent to act on behalf of the principal in a broad range of legal and financial matters. Clearly outline the specific powers the agent is being granted, such as managing bank accounts, making financial decisions, signing contracts, or even making healthcare decisions.
3. Include any limitations or restrictions. If there are any limitations or restrictions on the powers being granted, they should be clearly stated in the document. For example, the principal may choose to restrict the agent from selling certain assets or making specific decisions.
4. Specify the duration. Determine the duration of the power of attorney. It can be effective immediately, or you may set a specific date for it to become effective. Additionally, you can include an ending date or specify that it remains in effect until the principal revokes it.
