Oregon Power of Attorney Forms (9 Types)

Updated August 09, 2023

Oregon power of attorney forms provide a way for a person (“principal”) to make another individual (“agent”) their legal representative for specific tasks or affairs. This is common among elderly adults who give their spouse or children rights over their financial and medical care if they cannot speak for themselves. Once signed, the agent may immediately start acting on behalf of the principal by presenting the document to third (3rd) parties.
