A power of attorney document is a very important financial and medical instrument that gives wide ranging powers to the agent (person named in the document) by the principal (person signing the document and naming the agent). These documents grant authority to the named agent (commonly referred to as "Attorney in Fact") to act on behalf of and in the stead of the principal in financial matters. The scope of the authority granted is determined by the principal who may choose to limit the powers granted to his or her agent.

Because of the sensitive nature of the document and the potential wide ranging authority they may provide for, the document must be notarized before it can be used and is not accepted for use without a notaries certification of the signature of the principle who granted the authority.

Often times, as in the case of a loved one or friend in a hospital, or is home bound and is not able to travel, but wants to grant authority to an agent to take care of financial affairs and can not travel to a Notary Public.
