STATE OF COLORADO STATUTORY FORM
POWER OF ATTORNEY
(effective January 1, 2010)
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
This power of attorney authorizes another person (your agent) to make decisions
concerning your property for you (the principal). Your agent will be able to make decisions and act
with respect to your property (including your money) whether or not you are able to act for yourself.
The meaning of authority over subjects listed on this form is explained in the Uniform Power of
Attorney Act, part 7 of article 14 of title 15, Colorado Revised Statutes.
This power of attorney does not authorize the agent to make health care decisions for you.
You should select someone you trust to serve as your agent. Unless you specify otherwise,
generally the agent's authority will continue until you die or revoke the power of attorney or the
agent resigns or is unable to act for you.
Your agent is entitled to reasonable compensation unless you state otherwise in the special
instructions.
This form provides for designation of one agent. If you wish to name more than one agent
you may name a co-agent in the special instructions. Co-agents are not required to act together
unless you include that requirement in the special instructions.
If your agent is unable or unwilling to act for you, your power of attorney will end unless you
have named a successor agent. You may also name a second successor agent.
This power of attorney becomes effective immediately unless you state otherwise in the
special instructions.
If you have questions about the power of attorney or the authority you are granting to
your agent, you should seek legal advice before signing this form.
