The Massachusetts general financial power of attorney form is a document that will provide the ability to appoint an Agent, by the Principal, to make unlimited decisions with regard to the financial aspect of the Principal’s estate. Although the powers would be implemented upon completion of the document, the Principal will not give up their rights to authorize actions with regard to their accounts or any part of their finances (money). The Agent should also be aware that the document will not remain in effect should the Principal become incapacitated in any way.

This document will offer the opportunity for the Principal to impose limitations and restrictions upon the Agent. This document will require attestation by two witnesses and the acknowledgment of a Notary Public. The Principal may revoke this document at any time.
