A durable power of attorney designates in writing an agent (attorney in fact) and contains the words. (This power of attorney shall not be affected by subsequent disability or incapacity of the principal, or This power of attorney shall become effective upon the disability or incapacity of the principal, or similar words showing the intent of the principal that the authority conferred shall be exercisable, notwithstanding the principal's subsequent disability or incapacity.) (34-6-102.)
This instrument offers three choices for effective dates.
1. Immediately
2. Upon incapacity
3. Immediately when my spouse is acting as my Agent. If my spouse declines, is unable or ceases to serve as Agent, this Power of Attorney becomes effective upon my becoming disabled or incapacitated.
In the event your agent is unable or unwilling to serve a (substitute Agent) is named.
When the principal is (disabled or incapacitated). All acts done by the agent (attorney in fact) (bind the principal and the principal's successor in interest as if the principal were competent and not disabled.) 34-6-103
In general, if the attorney if fact acts under the power of attorney, he/she has a duty to account to the principal, or any legal representative. 34-6-107
This Durable Power of Attorney states: Pursuant to T.C.A. 34-6-101 et seq. and T.C.A. 34-6-201 et seq. (collectively the "Law"). I intend for the Law to apply in all respect and for this instrument to be construed broadly and not narrowly.

Using Deeds.com was unbelievably quick and easy to file a deed restriction with our local county office. From uploading the initial file to deeds.com, to having a fully recorded document was right on one hour - and all from the comfort of my home. I found your service was easy to use and your staff were very quick in responding to my filing. I will definitely use and recommend deeds.com in the future.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I downloaded the Lady Bird deed. The process was quick and easy to download. Just select your county, fill out the form. You will need the property description from your original deed. In my case I had to go downtown Wayne County (Detroit). (Make an appt online). 1st you will have to get the property tax certified to ensure all taxes are paid to date (5th floor at the Wayne County Treasurer office). Give them the form you just filled out and they will stamp certified $5. After that take the form to the Register of Deeds (7th floor) appt needed. $18. Make sure it is properly notarized and all signatures completed. Once approved, they will scan it, stamp it, give it back with a receipt and mail a copy also. All Done. Worked beautifully. My co worker go a lawyer and paid over $250. I just used deeds.com and total for forms and going downtown with notarizing was less than $40 Yea!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

My experience so far is quite good. Useful documents. It would be very helpful if the labels on the files downloaded were in text format, like "Jurat" rather than "1429107022SF21141." It would save me the extra step of providing proper file names.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
