A Maine Statement of Denial of Authority is an official document signed by a Maine resident that provides proof of their lack of authority to act on behalf of another person or business. This statement can be used in a variety of legal proceedings, such as probate, guardianship, conservatorship, and other cases involving fiduciary responsibilities. It is also used to protect individuals from being held liable for actions taken by someone else. The statement is typically signed in front of a notary public. There are two types of Maine Statement of Denial of Authority: an individual statement and a business statement. The individual statement is for individuals who wish to deny their authority to act on behalf of another person or business. The business statement is for businesses who wish to deny their authority to act on behalf of another person or business. Both of these statements must be signed by the Maine resident in question and notarized.
