How do you know if a power attorney has been revoked?

A power of attorney is typically revoked by executing a written revocation document and providing a copy to the appointed attorney-in-fact, financial institutions, and relevant parties. Additionally, you can inform the attorney-in-fact, institutions, and individuals involved that the power of attorney has been revoked. It is advisable to seek legal counsel to ensure the proper revocation process is followed.


Can a sister-in-law who has Power of Attorney change the beneficiary who is the separated wife?

A "separated wife" is still married. An attorney-in-fact cannot make changes to a will. An attorney-in-fact should not make changes in beneficiaries of insurance policies unless done at the express request of the principal. Otherwise those changes will be vulnerable to challenges in court. A surviving spouse cannot be disinherited in most jurisdictions. They would be entitled to a statutory share of the estate even if disinherited in the will.

It depends on what rights you are referring to. The stepson has the legal rights set forth in the Power of Attorney document. Those are likely to include the power to sell solely owned property, manage bank accounts, make medical decisions, etc. He cannot use the power to disinherit the spouse. The spouse should consult with an attorney to discuss her rights and status.It depends on what rights you are referring to.

A person wants to give you the power of attorney for their finances. In this matter who is the agent and who is the principal?

The power of attorney is the form or document used to create the attorney-in-fact. The person who signs the power is the principal, the person designated as having the power of attorney is the agent or attorney-in-fact. The power can be limited and/or durable or general. It can also be limited to a specific purpose, like signing documents to purchase or sell a house. Durable means it continues in effect even though the principal becomes mentally incompetent. The power ends on the death of the principal unless revoked earlier.
