What is the diference between a General Power of Attorney and a Special Power of Attorney?
A general power of attorney authorizes your Agent to act on your behalf in a variety of different situations. A general power of attorney is very broad and provides extensive powers to the person or organization you appoint as your agent. A special power of attorney authorizes your Agent to act on your behalf in specific situations only. For example, you could authorize someone to sell a car or a house for you.
