Power of Attorney Notarizations
Signing Under a Power of Attorney |
What signature styles will you possibly encounter when someone acting under a power of attorney signs a document on behalf of the person named in the document? |
Finally, remember that whenever officiating in a transaction involving an attorney-in-fact signing for a principal, you must complete a notarial certificate for acknowledgment by an individual in a representative capacity. (An attorney-in-fact cannot take an oath on behalf of a principal, only an acknowledgment.) If the certificate language provided is for an individual signing for him- or herself, you must correct the language or strike completely through it and attach a loose notarial certificate with the correct language. |
