Kansas Limited Power of Attorney

A limited (or special) power of attorney authorizes an agent to act for you in Kansas for one specific task or a set period: closing a sale, managing a bank account, handling a title transfer. In Kansas, a limited power of attorney generally must be either acknowledged before a notary public or signed by two witnesses (Kan. Stat. Ann. 58-652).
