I am trying to initiate a limited power of attorney for my incarcerated brother so I can put the vehicles that are in his name into my name, and the storage units as well. How do I do this?

A limited power of attorney allows someone to act only for specific tasks. Your limited POA could state something like:

“I, [Brother’s Name], hereby appoint [Your Name] as my attorney-in-fact for the limited purpose of transferring ownership of the following vehicles: [List Vehicles with VIN or identifying details] into [Your Name]’s name in my absence.”

For managing storage units, add:

“I also authorize [Your Name] to manage, control, and transfer ownership of storage units located at [Facility Name/Address], and to take all necessary actions.”

You might also include a time limit, like:

“This power of attorney is effective until the transfer of ownership is complete, but no later than [specific date or event].”

I understand you’re trying to set up a limited power of attorney for your incarcerated brother. Have you already identified a lawyer to help?

No, I’m trying to do it without a lawyer if possible.

Lexi

Lexi, Chatbot

Are you transferring the ownership of the vehicles and storage units just for management purposes, or is there another reason for the transfer?

What are management purposes?

Lexi

Lexi, Chatbot

Is there anything else the lawyer should know before I connect you?

No, thank you.

If you’re dealing with a DMV or storage facility, check if they have specific wording or requirements for the power of attorney document.

OK, that makes sense. Thanks, Brandon!
