Making a Wyoming Power of Attorney
A Wyoming Power of Attorney (PoA) is a legal document that gives a selected individual or entity the authority to manage your finances, such as accessing your bank account(s), signing contracts, and selling property.
The individual giving permission is known as the "principal," and the person or entity receiving powers is called the "agent" or "attorney-in-fact." Suited for Wyoming residents, our Power of Attorney can be used in Campbell County, Laramie County, Natrona County, and in every other part of the state. All Wyoming Power of Attorney forms from Rocket Lawyer can be fully personalized for your unique circumstances. With this official legal document on hand, your representative(s) will be able to provide confirmation to financial institutions and other parties that they can legally sign documents or take other actions for you.

This solution will often end up being much more affordable and convenient than meeting and hiring a conventional attorney. If necessary, you may prepare a PoA on behalf of your spouse or another family member, and then have them sign it once you've drafted it. Please note that for a Power of Attorney to be legally valid, the principal must be mentally competent when they sign. If the principal is already incapacitated and unable to make their own decisions, a conservatorship generally will be required. When dealing with such a scenario, it's best to connect with an attorney.
Every person over 18 years old should have a Power of Attorney. Although it is unpleasant to acknowledge, a day could come when you are no longer able to make legal decisions on your own. There will even be times when you're merely unavailable. Common situations where power of attorney can be helpful include:
Regardless of whether this Wyoming Power of Attorney is being produced as a result of an emergency or as part of a long-term plan, notarization and/or witnesses will often help to protect your document if a third party doubts its authenticity.
Power of Attorney documents can be classified in multiple ways. They are largely based on what powers are given, when they will come into effect, and how long they will remain valid. Frequently, you may see them defined in the four segments below:

The specifications and restrictions for PoA forms are different by state; however, in Wyoming, your document will require notarization. If your agent will have the authority to handle real estate transactions, the Power of Attorney will need to be signed by a notary and recorded with your county.
