Who Needs a Limited Power of Attorney?

NRIs Managing Indian Property:
You’re abroad but need someone to handle a property sale, rental agreement, or manage tenants? A limited POA lets you assign these duties without full legal surrender.

Senior Citizens & Patients:
Health issues slowing you down? Let a family member manage your bank work or insurance paperwork through a legally defined proxy.

Business Owners & Freelancers:
Need someone to represent you in a specific contract or government registration? A limited POA ensures they act within your clearly set boundary.

Urban Professionals on the Move:
Travelling abroad or caught up in a work crunch? Delegate one-time authority—like appearing for a vehicle registration or utility service.
