There are three ways to revoke a power of attorney: by preparing a written revocation letter; by destroying all existing copies of your power of attorney; and by creating a new power of attorney document that supersedes the old one.
A principal may cancel (revoke) his or her power of attorney at any time by signing a document that contains much the same information as the document granting the power. This document should clearly identify the power of attorney and state that it is revoked.
If you want to revoke a previously executed power of attorney and do not want to name a new representative, you must write REVOKE across the top of the first page with a current signature and date below this annotation.
If you have made and signed a Power of Attorney such as a Lasting Power of Attorney or an Ordinary Power of Attorney, you are perfectly within your rights to cancel it. It is also possible to make a Deed of Partial Revocation, which would allow you to remove an attorney without revoking the whole document.
In most instances, as long as the principal is mentally competent, a Power of Attorney can be revoked at any time, even if there is a different specified termination date in the document.
