Statutory Power of Attorney Form - Pennsylvania

In Pennsylvania, a Pennsylvania Statutory Power of Attorney Form is a legal document confirming that an agent can represent another individual (the principal) in their financial affairs, making vital decisions regarding financing on their behalf. This would also occur if the principal would be classed as no longer in a fit state of mind to make such decisions by a doctor. To make sure that the decisions made by the agent take into account the desires of the principal, the principal should have an open talk with the agent to explain their points of view. Because the role of the agent is so important, principals will pick close people to be their agent such as a family member of friend.

There are also concrete signing requirements for a Pennsylvania Statutory Power of Attorney. The form must be signed by the principal in front of a notary public and two witnesses. If this is not done, the legitimacy and legal application of the document can be questioned. For this reason, it is important to make sure that these requirements are fulfilled.
