Illinois Report of Attorney-In-Fact or Consul is a legal document used when a person (attorney-in-fact) is authorized to act on behalf of another person (principal). It is filed with the Circuit Court in the county where the principal's primary residence is located. The attorney-in-fact is required to provide a detailed report to the court in order to demonstrate that the principal has not been taken advantage of and that all actions taken were in the best interests of the principal. The report must include a list of all actions taken, including transactions, agreements, and other legal documents. There are two types of Illinois Report of Attorney-In-Fact or Consul: Limited Authority and Full Authority. Limited Authority is typically used when the attorney-in-fact is authorized to act on behalf of the principal for a specific purpose or transaction. Full Authority is used when the attorney-in-fact is authorized to act on behalf of the principal for all legal and financial matters.
