Alaska Limited Power of Attorney

A limited (or special) power of attorney authorizes an agent to act for you in Alaska for one specific task or a set period: closing a sale, managing a bank account, handling a title transfer. In Alaska, a limited power of attorney generally must be signed and acknowledged before a notary public (Alaska Stat. 13.26.600).
