A Limited Power of Attorney grants specific authority to another person for a single defined transaction — without handing over control of all your affairs. It is the right tool when you need someone to sign on a house sale, withdraw a check from the bank, or represent you for one specific matter. Bilingual, California-valid, ready in minutes.
Use a Limited POA when you need to delegate ONE specific, time-bounded task: sell or buy property while traveling abroad, authorize someone to pick up documents at the DMV, allow a family member to sign bank papers, designate someone to handle a single tax or legal matter. Unlike a General POA which grants broad authority, the Limited POA expires when the task completes or on a date you specify. It is the safer option when you trust someone for something specific but not for everything.
A Limited POA in California must follow Probate Code §4263 and must be specific — an overly broad Limited POA may be interpreted as a General POA. It must describe precisely: what the agent can do, over which property or account, and until what date. For real estate transactions, it must be notarized and recorded with the County Recorder. For banking matters, most banks require their own additional form.
The General grants broad authority over all financial matters. The Limited grants authority only for ONE specific task you define (e.g., selling a house, picking up documents, signing bank papers) and expires when that task is complete.
You decide. It can be for a single transaction, for 30 days, or until a specific date. We always recommend setting an expiration date for security.

Yes. Use our Revocation of Power of Attorney document and notify your agent and any institution holding a copy.
Only $99 — bilingual, ready in minutes. A California attorney would charge $250–$600 for the same document.
