Connecticut Durable Power of Attorney

A durable power of attorney stays in effect if you (the principal) later become incapacitated, which is exactly when your agent is needed most. In Connecticut, a durable power of attorney generally must be signed before a notary public and two witnesses (Conn. Gen. Stat. 1-350d).

This template collects the principal, the agent, the powers granted, and the durability language, then produces a Connecticut durable power of attorney ready to sign, in Word and PDF.
