We often hear the question, does the power of attorney need to be notarized in Texas? The answer is yes; the document and any changes to it should be formally notarized. Once these steps are completed, power of attorney is validly granted.
Under a limited power of attorney agreement, the agent can only act and make decisions on specified activities, and only to the extent that the principal authorizes. A principal does not need to choose a lawyer to be their agent; attorney in fact differs from an attorney at law.
Limited powers of attorney are valid for no more than 90 days, except those used by lessors, which are good for periods up to one year.
Until an attorney-in-fact's powers are properly revoked, they can continue to legally act for the principal. To cancel a Power of Attorney, the principal can create a document called a Revocation of Power of Attorney or create a new Power of Attorney that indicates the previous Power of Attorney is revoked.
A Limited Power of Attorney can give someone the authority to sign a legal document for a specific transaction. For instance, a limited power of attorney may be used to enable a real estate agent to handle a closing on behalf of a buyer or seller who is far away.
