About this template

What is this template?

This is a supplemental deed of power of attorney specifically designed to enlarge an existing representative's scope of authority. It is not a standalone power of attorney and is not a revocation of prior authority.

When should you use it?

Use this when an existing attorney-in-fact requires additional legal capacity not covered in the original document, rather than drafting a new General Power of Attorney from scratch.

It depends on the situation. Templates work well for routine business agreements. For anything involving significant money, complex IP, employment, or areas you're unsure about, it's worth getting professional advice before you sign. GitLaw provides templates and tools, not legal advice.

Open any template in GitLaw and describe the change you want in the chat — 'make clause 4 mutual' or 'add a 30-day notice period', for example. GitLaw drafts the revised language and shows it as a suggested edit. You accept, reject, or keep editing from there.
