Frequently Asked Questions

A Notice of Revocation of Power of Attorney is a legal document that formally terminates the authority granted to an Attorney-in-Fact by the Principal. It ensures that all parties are informed of the revocation and that the previous powers are no longer valid.

Yes, the form must be witnessed by two individuals who are not parties to the agreement. This requirement helps to ensure the authenticity of the document and protects against potential disputes.

While notarization is not strictly required, it is highly recommended. Having the document notarized adds an extra layer of legal validity and can help prevent challenges to the revocation.

After signing the document, the Grantor should provide copies to the Attorney-in-Fact, any relevant financial institutions, and any other parties that may have relied on the original Power of Attorney.

If you do not revoke your Power of Attorney, the Attorney-in-Fact retains the authority to act on your behalf until you take formal action to revoke it. This could lead to decisions being made that do not align with your current wishes or circumstances.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who wish to terminate the authority of their previously appointed Attorney-in-Fact may need this form. This situation often arises when the Principal no longer trusts the Agent or has made alternative arrangements for their affairs.
  • Situations requiring a clear and formal revocation of power often involve changes in personal circumstances, such as divorce or relocation. In such cases, the Principal must ensure that the revoked Power of Attorney is communicated effectively to all relevant parties.
  • To comply with legal requirements, a Principal must notify their Agent and any institutions that relied on the Power of Attorney. This ensures that there are no misunderstandings regarding the authority of the Attorney-in-Fact after revocation.
  • For those who have experienced a significant life event, such as the death of a spouse or a major health change, this form is essential. It allows the Principal to regain control over their affairs and ensure that their wishes are respected.
  • In business contexts, when a company changes its management structure, the existing Power of Attorney may need to be revoked. This form serves to formally notify all parties involved of the change in authority.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate if the Principal is incapacitated and unable to make decisions. In such cases, a court may need to appoint a guardian or conservator instead of relying on a revocation.
  • – If the Power of Attorney was created as part of a legal settlement or court order, revocation may not be permissible without court approval. It's essential to consult with a legal professional in such situations.
  • – This form should not be used if the Principal is unsure about their decision to revoke the Power of Attorney. It is crucial to be certain of the decision, as it can have significant implications for the management of one's affairs.
  • – In instances where the revocation is being contested by the Attorney-in-Fact, using this form alone may not suffice. Legal counsel should be sought to navigate disputes regarding authority and revocation.
