Can an Attorney-in-Fact Name Someone to Have Co-Power of Attorney?

Power of Attorney cannot be assigned by the Attorney-in-Fact (the person granted the responsibility of Power of Attorney) named in the document to another person of his or her choice.

Only the Maker of the Power of Attorney document can designate someone to be his or her attorney-in-fact.

For affordable, well-written Power of Attorney documents, see Standard Legal’s POA page.
