A Power of Attorney is a legal document by which an individual gives another person the authority to make decisions and conduct transactions on his or her behalf. The person giving the authority is called the Principal, and the person receiving the power is called the Agent or attorney-in-fact. When created correctly, the Power of Attorney gives the Agent a broad range of powers to handle a wide variety of legal and financial matters on behalf of the Principal in many different contexts.
