Loading...A Florida non-durable financial power of attorney, also referred to as a ‘General POA’, is used by a principal who does not elect to have their agent act for them if they should become mentally incompetent. The form is valid and usable by the agent up until the time the principal is recognized by a medical physician that they no longer have the capacity to think on their own. Nevertheless, all powers that are allowed under State law (Chapter 709) are available for use by the principal and agent.
