Rhode Island Limited Power of Attorney Form can be used to appoint another person to wield some of the authority at your disposal for a predetermined length of time or with specific matters. This paperwork has been developed so that only a certain amount of principal power is available to the agent when representing the principal. This can be handy if you find yourself in a situation where you plan on being out of the country for a short period of time or have a transaction that must be handled with your Name but will be unavailable to conduct business personally. This template will allow you to appoint someone for that limited time period or transaction only. Keep in mind that such paperwork will be taken literally so make sure to clearly indicate the beginning and end of this representation and the approved transaction(s) where the agent is expected to wield principal power.
