Limited power of attorney

Term · Law · MLC-T-LAW-003060

A legal document that grants a designated agent the authority to act on behalf of the principal for specific, clearly defined matters or for a limited period. The scope of authority is precisely outlined, such as handling a single financial transaction or managing property during a specific absence. This contrasts with a general power of attorney, which grants broad authority.
