What is a specific power of attorney?
Power of attorney with a narrowly defined scope of authority, typically for a single transaction or single act.
A specific power of attorney limits the representative's authority to one particular transaction or single act, for example, selling a specific apartment, obtaining a single certificate from a government office, signing one contract. The advantage is minimal risk of misuse; the representative cannot act beyond the named task. Often the right choice when the scope is genuinely single-step.
