Arizona Power of Attorney

An Arizona Power of Attorney grants permission to one or more persons you name to act or make decisions on your behalf if you become unable or unwilling to do so for yourself. Your Agent (the person you name) can step in if you have a serious illness, were in a major vehicle accident, or just need someone to handle your affairs while you are away for work or on vacation. You can make a plan now and rest easy that someone you've chosen will have the ability to take action on your behalf if needed.

A Power of Attorney grants legal permission for another person or an organization (the "agent") to act or make decisions on your behalf if you become unable to do so independently. You can decide whether you'd like for this power to begin immediately, on a specific date, or upon a future event if you become incapacitated. The powers granted in the Power of Attorney can end either on a specific date, or they will automatically end upon your death.

The Arizona Power of Attorney is specific to the laws of the state of Arizona and should be created by residents of Arizona. It also needs to be signed in front of an Arizona notary public in order to be a legally binding document.

You may designate the Power of Attorney as "general," granting broad powers to control your financial, health, legal, and other matters, or "special," granting power for only specific situations. Depending on your designation, the Power of Attorney can either end at a specified date, or it will automatically end upon your death.
