What is a Power of Attorney?
A Power of Attorney (POA) gives someone (ie an 'attorney' or 'donee') the authority to handle your legal affairs if you are unable to act in person. General Powers of Attorney can be used while you have mental capacity but are temporarily unavailable to act in person for some other reason (eg because you are abroad or in the hospital).
⚠️ For use in England and Wales only. This POA cannot be used internationally.
When should I use a Power of Attorney?
Use this Power of Attorney if you:
- Need someone to act in your place while you're away or are otherwise unable to act
- Want to give someone the power to act as if they were you on a short-term basis only
- Have 'mental capacity' (ie you understand what you are signing)
- Trust absolutely the person you appoint as your attorney(s)
- Live in England or Wales
This POA cannot be used to create a lasting power of attorney (LPA). If you need an LPA, you must register it with the Office of the Public Guardian.
