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
WHEREAS, the Principal intends this Power of Attorney to be governed by the laws of the State of [state_law] and all applicable provisions of the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted therein.
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 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 2026-04-07, subject to any springing provisions described in Section 2 above.
This Power of Attorney shall expire and terminate automatically on 2026-04-07, 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. A third party who refuses to honor this Power of Attorney may be liable for attorneys' fees and damages as provided by applicable law. The Principal hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any third party who acts in good faith reliance upon the representations and authority of the Agent under this instrument.

As a California barber shop owner, unexpected events can disrupt your business. A Power of Attorney ensures your shop's operations, financial decisions, and crucial compliance with regulations like Cal-OSHA and state cosmetology board standards continue seamlessly, even if you can't be there. Protect your livelihood and delegate authority with confidence, safeguarding against potential client injury claims or booth rental disputes.
California's unique legal landscape, including AB5 worker classification, CCPA data handling, and specific Cal-OSHA standards, means a general Power of Attorney might not fully cover your business needs. A California-specific POA ensures your agent can properly manage these intricate compliance issues and liabilities related to client injury claims or sanitation violations, alongside general financial and operational tasks.
Yes, by granting specific powers, your agent can manage booth rental agreements, including rent payments and dispute resolution, as well as handle renewals or compliance issues related to your state barber shop license and individual barber licenses. This is crucial for maintaining salon operations and mitigating potential disputes common in the industry.
Depending on the 'Powers Granted' clause in your Power of Attorney, your agent could manage financial transactions, handle client injury claims, ensure compliance with sanitation protocols, negotiate and manage vendor contracts for supplies, deal with employee matters if you have them, and make decisions regarding shop maintenance. You can specify whether these powers are broad or limited to certain areas.
By appointing an agent who understands your business, they can oversee and ensure adherence to mandatory sanitation practices and state cosmetology board regulations. This proactive management, guided by your instructions in the POA, helps mitigate the risk of sanitation violations and protects your shop's reputation and licensing status during your absence or incapacity.
