This document is a formal template used to revoke an existing Power of Attorney and appoint a new person to act on your behalf. It allows you to transfer all previously granted powers to a successor attorney while ensuring their lawful actions remain legally binding on you.

About this template

What is this template?

This is a deed of revocation and fresh appointment of an attorney-in-fact. It is not a general power of attorney; it specifically references a prior deed to transfer existing powers to a new person.

When should you use it?

Use this when a previous attorney's authority must be cancelled and immediately transferred to another person. Use a Revocation of Power of Attorney if no new person is being appointed.

Templates in our curated library are professionally drafted for US or UK law. The wider library comes from the GitLaw community and public sources - a solid starting point, but check any template fits your situation before you rely on it.

Mostly US and UK law. Some templates use general commercial terms that work across jurisdictions, and many note which law they're written for.

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.
