Affidavit and Power of Attorney

An affidavit is a written statement made under oath, used as evidence in legal proceedings. It typically includes facts the affiant (the person making the affidavit) asserts to be true, and is signed in the presence of a notary public or other authorized official.

A Power of Attorney (POA) is a legal document that allows one person (the principal) to grant another person (the agent or attorney-in-fact) the authority to make decisions and act on their behalf. This can cover financial matters, healthcare decisions, or other legal affairs, and can be limited to specific tasks or be more general in scope.
