This sample form, a Revocable Proxy document, is usable for corporate/business matters. The language is easily adaptable to fit your circumstances. You must confirm compliance with applicable law in your state. Available in Word format.
To keep everything above board, make sure to follow Georgia's legal requirements – clearly outline what your proxy can do, and if needed, get it notarized. It’s always best to cross your t's and dot your i's!
Not quite! A revocable proxy is specifically for temporary decisions, while a power of attorney gives broader and more lasting authority over your financial or medical matters.
In Georgia, having a witness isn’t always necessary for every situation, but it’s a good idea just to have someone who can back up your decisions if ever questioned.
Absolutely! Just like turning a page in a book, you can change your mind and update or cancel the proxy at any time as long as you’re competent to do so.
You can choose anyone you trust, be it a family member, a friend, or even a professional like a lawyer. Just make sure they understand what you need and can carry it out.
You might want to use a revocable proxy when you can't be present to make decisions, but you still want someone trustworthy to handle things for you, like arranging your affairs or voting in a meeting.
A revocable proxy is like giving someone the keys to your house – you let them enter and act on your behalf, but you can change your mind and take those keys back whenever you want.
