AGENT:
A person who is authorized to act on behalf of another. A
corporation acts only through its agents, whether they are directors,
employees, or officers.
[Back to top]
Power of Attorney:
A written document signed By a person giving another person
the power to act in conducting the signer's business, including
signing papers, checks, title documents, contracts, handling
bank accounts and other activities in the name of the person
granting the power. The person receiving the power of attorney
(the agent) is "attorney in fact" for the person giving the
power, and usually signs documents as "Melinda Hubbard, attorney
in fact for Guilda Giver." There are two types of power of attorney:
a) general power of attorney, which covers all activities, and
b) special power of attorney, which grants powers limited to
specific matters, such as selling a particular piece of real
estate, handling some bank accounts or executing a limited partnership
agreement. A power of attorney may expire on a date stated in
the document or upon written cancellation. Usually the signer
acknowledges before a notary public that he/she executed the
power, so that it is recordable if necessary, as in a real estate
transaction.
Simply speaking a Power of Attorney
is a written document stating that one person gives to another
the full power and authority to represent him or her. The person
who gives the power is the principal, and the person who receives
the power is the attorney-in-fact or agent. A Power of Attorney
must be signed By both the agent and the principal, witnessed
By two people (not required in the State of Washington) and
notarized.
There are many ways to designate
a decision-maker for you with a Power of Attorney document.
You can assign a General Power of Attorney that covers all of
your legal, financial and personal decisions except those pertaining
to your medical care and treatment, or a Limited Power of Attorney
that only covers decision-making in areas that you specify.
You can have your Power of Attorney made immediately effective,
which means that the agent has the power to represent you now.
If you also make the Power of Attorney Durable, the agent's
power to represent you will remain in effect in the event you
become mentally unable to make decisions on your own (incompetent).
Or, you can make it Springing, which means that it becomes effective
only in the event you become incompetent.
A very popular use of the Power
of Attorney has absolutely nothing to do with mental incompetence.
Many military people and overseas contractors prepare Powers
of Attorney that are immediately effective, so their wives,
husbands or other family members in the United States can deposit
paychecks, make purchases, pay bills and otherwise represent
them financially or legally while they are away or otherwise
not available to handle these matters themselves.

Power of Attorney
for Healthcare:
A Power of Attorney is a written
document stating that one person gives to another the full power
and authority to make healthcare decisions for that one person
when he or she is unable to. The person who gives the power
is the principal, and the person who receives the power is the
attorney-in-fact or agent. A Power of Attorney must be signed
By both the agent and the principal, witnessed By two people
(not required in the State of Washington) and notarized.
