Choosing Your Power of Attorney Agent – Important Things to Consider
If you ever doubt your agents trustworthiness or if a conflict of interest arises
, you should terminate the agents authority to act for you by using a Revocation of Power of Attorney document. As a follow up, you should also contact other parties who may have been relying on the authority of your agent such as banks. You may also appoint an alternate agent would become your primary agent if your first choice can not perform the duties when the time arrives. It should also be noted that a separate Power of Attorney must be created for each person. A "joint" Power of Attorney is not valid.
