What is a Kentucky Power of Attorney?

If you wish to give a trusted friend, family member, or professional the power to handle your financial or legal issues in your absence or if you become ill, then a Kentucky Power of Attorney is the right document for you. Your authorization can begin immediately, on a specific date, or at whatever point you become incapacitated (for example, as a result of an accident, a serious illness, or surgery). It's your choice.

What are the different Power of Attorney forms?

There are a variety of different Power of Attorney forms, such as a General Power of Attorney, Durable Power of Attorney, Special Power of Attorney, and Springing Power of Attorney.A General Power of Attorney allows you to authorize an Agent, someone you trust, to handle your affairs, but that authority ends if you become incapacitated. A Durable Power of Attorney, on the other hand, contains specific language that extends your agent's authority even if you are incapacitated. Unlike a Durable Power of Attorney, which is effective immediately, a Springing Power of Attorney is signed, but only goes into effect once a particular event occurs (for example, once the Principal become incapacitated).A Special Power of Attorney, also known as a Limited Power of Attorney, allows an Agent to act only in specific situations.
