A Power of Attorney is one of the most important legal documents you can sign. In California, it gives another person legal authority to act on your behalf — for financial matters, healthcare decisions, real estate transactions, and more. A mobile notary in San Diego can come to you and make sure every detail is correct the first time.

Types of Power of Attorney in California

• General Power of Attorney — broad authority over financial and legal matters
• Durable Power of Attorney — remains valid if the principal becomes incapacitated
• Limited Power of Attorney — authority for a specific transaction or time period
• Healthcare Power of Attorney — authority to make healthcare decisions

California POA Requirements

In California, a Power of Attorney must be signed in front of a notary public or two adult witnesses. The principal must be of sound mind at the time of signing. The document must comply with California Probate Code Section 4401. Do not sign the document before the notary arrives.

What to Bring to Your POA Appointment

• Valid government-issued photo ID — the name must match the POA document exactly.
• The completed POA document — ready to sign but not yet signed.
