LIMITED POWER OF ATTORNEY FAQ


What is a limited power of attorney?

A limited power of attorney is a legal document that grants another person authority to act on your behalf for specific tasks or decisions. Unlike a general power of attorney, it limits the agent’s authority to clearly defined situations, transactions, or timeframes.


Why do you need a limited power of attorney?

It allows you to delegate important but specific responsibilities—such as selling property, handling a financial transaction, or managing certain investments—without giving broad control over all your affairs. This ensures targeted authority and greater security.


When should I use a limited power of attorney?

Use it when you are unable to handle specific matters yourself due to travel, illness, or scheduling conflicts, but still need legally valid representation for clearly outlined purposes.


How to write a limited power of attorney?

Clearly identify yourself and your chosen agent, specify the exact powers granted, outline any restrictions, set an expiration date if needed, and have the document signed and notarized (or witnessed) according to local law.
