Sample Letter for Invalid Power of Attorney [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Recipient's Name] [Recipient's Address] [City, State, Zip Code] Subject: Invalid Power of Attorney — Request for Resolution Dear [Recipient's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to address a concern regarding an invalid Power of Attorney (POA) document that has been presented on behalf of [Principal's Name], my [relation to principal], at [specific location or institution]. I kindly request your assistance in resolving this matter promptly and efficiently. First, let me provide you with some background information. [Principal's Name] executed a Power of Attorney document on [Date of POA Document], granting [Agent's Name] the authority to act on their behalf in various legal and financial matters. However, I have recently discovered that this specific Power of Attorney document is invalid for the following reasons: 1. Lack of Duress: [Principal's Name] signed the POA voluntarily and without any form of duress, coercion, or undue influence. Upon thorough examination, it has become evident that [Principal's Name] was not of sound mind or capable of fully comprehending the implications of granting such authority at the time. 2. Improper Notarization: The POA document lacks proper notarization, as required by Colorado law. The notary public who purportedly notarized the document, [Notary Public's Name], was not authorized or licensed to perform notarial acts in the state. This flaw further invalidates the document, rendering it void and unenforceable. 3. Scope of Authority: The authorized powers granted to [Agent's Name] in the invalid POA document exceed those permissible under Colorado law. These excessive powers not only include financial transactions but also encompass decisions regarding healthcare, legal matters, and property transactions, which far surpasses the legal limits of a standard POA. Considering the aforementioned reasons, I kindly request that you take immediate action to rectify this situation. In order to protect the best interests of [Principal's Name], I ask that you: 1. Notify all relevant parties involved, such as financial institutions, healthcare providers, and legal entities, about the nullification of the previously presented POA document. 2. Prohibit [Agent's Name]'s access and authority to act on behalf of [Principal's Name] in any capacity until a valid and legally executed POA document is presented. 3. Cooperate in any necessary investigations or legal proceedings to ascertain the extent of damage caused by the invalid POA and its implications. 4. Implement stricter controls and verification procedures to ensure the validity of future POA documents presented at your institution, guaranteeing the protection of vulnerable individuals. I kindly ask for your prompt attention to this matter because any delay can result in potential harm or exploitation of [Principal's Name]'s interests. Please keep me informed of the actions taken to resolve this issue, and feel free to contact me at any time at [Your Phone Number] or [Your Email Address] if further clarification or documentation is required. I appreciate your understanding and cooperation and look forward to a quick resolution to this matter. Sincerely, [Your Name]
