Power of Attorney Form - Texas
A power of attorney (POA) lets one person (the principal) legally authorize another person (the agent or attorney-in-fact) to act on their behalf. In Texas the law provides specific statutory forms and rules that make many POAs easier to draft and more widely accepted by banks, title companies and health providers. Below is a practical, state-focused guide to the main types, regional requirements and common uses of POA documents in Texas.
