Ordinary Power of Attorney

Ordinary Powers of Attorney are created for a set period of time in cases where the Donor is going abroad or is unable to act for some other reason and wishes someone else to have the authority to act on his or her behalf. An Ordinary Power of Attorney will usually end either at a specified time or upon the request of the Donor at any time using a Deed of Revocation and will automatically be revoked if the Donor loses mental capacity.

There is no requirement for an Ordinary Power of Attorney to be registered.

An Ordinary Power of Attorney can be revoked using a Deed of Revocation. It is important to note that when using a Deed of Revocation it is necessary to inform the Attorney(s) of the revocation as the Attorney's authority does not cease until he or she receives notice of the revocation. A copy of the Deed of Revocation should be sent to each Attorney.

We offer two Ordinary Power of Attorneys: one that allows the appointed Attorneys to act on behalf of the Donor in nearly all the Donor's property and affairs and one that limits the powers to operating bank accounts (including signing cheques). Both Ordinary Power of Attorneys allow the Donor to appoint up to four Attorneys.
