Power of attorney forms are written authorizations that allow a person (usually a lawyer) to represent and act on the behalf of another person in private, business, and legal affairs. The POA comes in various forms: special (or limited), general, temporary, or durable.

A general POA allows the agent to act in all matters, and so does a temporary POA, though under a limited time frame. A special POA limits the agent’s actions to a specific type of action.

The Different Kinds of Power of Attorney (POA)

  • General vs. Special. As stated, a general power of attorney is different from a special or limited power of attorney by virtue of their restricted scope of action.
  • Special POAs are granted most often to the major areas of life: medical, financial, legal, and over the care of a minor.
  • Temporary vs. Durable. The opposite of the other type, the temporary POA, is an enduring (or “durable”) POA. Enduring POA means the agent is allowed to act on your behalf even after you are incapacitated for whatever reason. (Incapacitation does not cover death. In that case, a Last Will comes into play.)
  • A Springing Power of Attorney is similar to the durable POA, but it can only take effect after the grantor (principal) of the power becomes incapable of acting.

Select the type of POA form suited to your needs from this generous selection and decide who may take control when you no longer can. This is a highly useful tool for long-term strategizing and planning for your estates.
