General Power of Attorney

If you, or a company, need to have another person or persons, company or firm to manage your affairs or the affairs of the company for a limited period of time, a general power of attorney can be used to do so. An individual may want to use a general power of attorney for a number of reasons - for example, they might be leaving the country for a period of time and need someone else to manage their affairs while they are gone. The person whom you (the 'donor') appoint to manage your affairs is known as your 'attorney'. Your attorney will be able to do anything on your behalf which he/she can legally do as an attorney. The power of attorney may be specific in that it limits the appointed attorney to performing specific tasks or it can be general allowing the attorney to do almost anything that you yourself could do. This document is suitable for use by both individuals and companies.

Revocation of a General Power of Attorney

Use this document to revoke a general or ordinary power of attorney that you, or a company, have previously granted to another person or persons. When a person, or company, appoints another person to act on their behalf under a general power of attorney, their authority to act continues until the power of attorney is revoked. The general power of attorney may normally be revoked at any time. While less common, some powers of attorney are stated to be irrevocable by the donor - it is important to ensure that the power of attorney you wish to revoke does not include such a condition.
