Utah Power of Attorney Forms


Utah power of attorney forms allow an individual to choose another party to represent them and make financial, medical, tax (filing), and parental guardianship (minor child) decisions on their behalf. The person granting the power is known as the “principal,” and the person accepting the designation is known as the “agent” or “attorney-in-fact.” Under Utah power of attorney law, the principal may create a “durable” form that continues to be effective even if the principal should become mentally disabled.
