Not necessarily If you can do it yourself then it will not cost you anything. If you have an attorney do it, there will be a reasonable and legitimate charge for the time the attorney has devoted the service you requested. In the event that the power of attorney has to be recorded in state recording offices there will be a charge for the recording fees and there may also be a charge if the previous power had been recording and now has to be cancelled of record.

Many states provide statutory power of attorney forms for financial and medical matters that are easy to understand and you only need to fill in the blanks and sign it. You can find these statutory power of attorney forms at businesses that sell legal forms.

There is no cost, as long as you have a power of attorney form you must find an attorney-in-fact or someone to act in your place for financial or medical decision-making, then have them sign the form with you in front of a notary. You do not file the form at any government office, you only show it when you need to at any public or private business or institution.
