KNOW ALL PERSONS BY THESE PRESENTS, that I, [principal_name] (the "Principal"), a resident of the State of [state_law], being of sound mind and under no duress, do hereby make, constitute, and appoint [agent_name] (the "Agent" or "Attorney-in-Fact") as my true and lawful Agent, to act for me and in my name, place, and stead, with respect to the powers and authority described herein.
WHEREAS, the Principal desires to appoint the Agent to act on the Principal's behalf with respect to certain matters, as more particularly described herein; and
WHEREAS, the Agent is willing to accept such appointment and to act in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this instrument; and

NOW, THEREFORE, the Principal hereby declares and grants this Power of Attorney as follows:
The Principal hereby appoints [agent_name] as the Principal's Attorney-in-Fact (the "Agent"). The Agent shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Principal in all matters described in this instrument, subject to any limitations expressly set forth herein. The Agent shall exercise such powers in a fiduciary capacity, in good faith, and in the best interests of the Principal at all times.

Subject to the type of authority designated above, the Principal hereby grants the Agent the following specific powers and authority: [powers_granted] The Agent shall exercise the foregoing powers prudently and in the Principal's best interests. In the event of any ambiguity regarding the scope of the powers granted herein, such ambiguity shall be resolved in favor of granting the Agent the authority reasonably necessary to carry out the Principal's stated intentions. The Agent may employ and compensate, at the Principal's expense, such professionals, advisors, accountants, and attorneys as the Agent deems reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of the Agent's duties hereunder.
This Power of Attorney shall become effective as of 2026-04-19, subject to any springing provisions described in Section 2 above.
This Power of Attorney shall expire and terminate automatically on 2026-04-19, unless sooner revoked by the Principal or terminated by operation of law.

Any actions taken by the Agent after the expiration date shall be void and of no legal effect.
Any third party who receives a copy of this Power of Attorney, whether original, photocopy, or electronically transmitted, may rely upon the authority granted herein and may act in accordance with the Agent's instructions without liability to the Principal or the Principal's estate, heirs, or assigns. No third party shall be required to inquire into the validity or continuing effectiveness of this instrument, nor shall any third party be liable for acting in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney.

This Power of Attorney shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of [state_law], including but not limited to the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted by the State of [state_law] and any amendments thereto.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have executed this Power of Attorney on the date first written above.

In the Maryland appliance repair industry, managing complex service calls, EPA Section 608 compliance, and electrical hazard liabilities requires seamless operational continuity. Whether you need an agent to sign for OEM parts deliveries, manage Maryland Wage Payment and Collection Law compliance for your staff, or represent your interests in diagnostic fee disputes, a formal Power of Attorney is essential. Our documents are tailored to the MD Code Com. Law and the MD Personal Information Protection Act, ensuring that your agent can handle property damage claims or warranty disputes without jeopardizing your business standing. Using a Maryland-specific POA ensures you meet state notarization requirements while navigating unique protections like the non-compete limitations for low-wage workers under MD Code Lab. & Empl. § 3-716.
Beyond the standard power of attorney sections, this template adds fields specific to Appliance Repair Technician:
A power of attorney (POA) is a legal document that enables one person (the principal) to designate another person (the agent or attorney-in-fact) to make decisions and act on their behalf in specified or all matters. The document serves as a legal empowerment that allows the agent to manage affairs such as financial transactions, health care decisions, and legal proceedings, thereby ensuring the principal's affairs can be managed even if they are incapacitated or unavailable to oversee them directly.
Property Damage
Contracts often include clauses limiting liability for certain types of property damage and may require customers to acknowledge the inherent risks of appliance repair. Waivers and disclaimers are also common.
Electrical Hazard Liability
Yes, provided the agent has the necessary certifications. While the POA grants the legal authority to sign documents or handle business affairs related to refrigerants, the agent must still adhere to EPA Section 608 standards for actual handling. The POA should specifically include the power to manage regulatory filings and environmental compliance records.
Under the Maryland Wage Payment and Collection Law (Md. Code Lab. & Empl. § 3-501 et seq.), the principal remains responsible for legal compliance. However, your agent can be authorized to process payroll and settle wage disputes, provided they adhere to Maryland’s specific rules on deductions and the timing of final wages for departing repair technicians.
Yes. By granting your agent specific 'Powers Granted' related to contract enforcement, they can legally represent your business in resolving service call fee disputes or misdiagnosis claims. This is particularly useful for technicians who are in the field and need an agent to handle administrative or legal rebuttals regarding labor warranty terms.
