Key Requirements PROMPT example:

Procuration Letter

"I need a Procuration Letter that authorizes my business partner to manage our UK property investments and sign contracts on my behalf while I'm abroad for six months from March 2025."

Document background
A Procuration Letter is essential when one party needs to delegate authority to another for specific purposes. This document, governed by English and Welsh law, outlines the scope of delegated powers, the duration of the authority, and any limitations or conditions. The Procuration Letter must comply with the Powers of Attorney Act 1971 and should clearly specify whether it's for general or specific purposes. It's commonly used in business transactions, property matters, or when the grantor is temporarily unavailable or unable to act personally.
