Utah Limited Power of Attorney

A limited (or special) power of attorney authorizes an agent to act for you in Utah for one specific task or a set period: closing a sale, managing a bank account, handling a title transfer. In Utah, a limited power of attorney generally must be signed and acknowledged before a notary public (Utah Code 75-9-105).
