Wyoming Power of Attorney Forms


Wyoming power of attorney forms let an individual represent another person and handle their financial, medical, and tax filing needs. The person being represented, the “principal,” must first select someone they deem fit. The appointed party, the “agent” or “attorney-in-fact,” must be trustworthy and knowledgeable of the principal’s business affairs and medical interests. If the form selected is durable, the document continues to be valid if the principal should become incapable of thinking for themselves. Otherwise, all non-durable power of attorney forms will be void upon the principal’s incapacity.
