You either need an attorney or the bail bonds person to go to the jail and it will also be notarized in the jail at least here in hillbourough county Florida ===Additional Answer=== You should draft several original Durable Power of Attorney forms (at least four-five) and mail them to the prisoner. The person who is incarcerated should be able to sign them before witnesses and a notary at the prison. The prisoner should keep a copy and send the other originals back to you. He could ask the notary at the prison if one needs to be filed at the prison. You should keep at least one copy in a safe place and keep another copy in your wallet. See the link below for an example of a Durable POA form and the tasks you can perform under a POA. If you want to make certain the Durable POA will be acceptable at institutions where you may need to act for the prisoner then you should have the POA document reviewed by an attorney.
