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 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. The Agent shall act with the care, competence, and diligence ordinarily exercised by agents in similar circumstances and shall not engage in any self-dealing or conflict of interest unless expressly authorized herein.
The authority granted to the Agent under this Power of Attorney is designated as follows and shall be construed in accordance with the applicable type of authority selected below.
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. Upon the expiration date, the Agent's authority under this instrument shall cease immediately, and the Agent shall have no further power to act on the Principal's behalf. 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.
The Principal reserves the right to revoke, amend, or modify this Power of Attorney at any time, provided that the Principal has the legal capacity to do so. Any revocation, amendment, or modification shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery of written notice to the Agent and to any third party who has previously relied upon this instrument. Until a third party receives actual written notice of revocation, such third party may continue to rely upon the authority granted herein and shall not be liable for any actions taken in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney prior to receiving such notice. Upon revocation, the Agent shall promptly return to the Principal all documents, records, property, and funds in the Agent's possession or control that belong to or relate to the affairs of the Principal.
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. The Principal consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of [state_law] for the resolution of any disputes arising out of or relating to this instrument. If any provision of this Power of Attorney is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed from this instrument and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
The Agent is hereby authorized and directed to comply with the Minnesota Wage Theft Prevention Act and related statutes. Specifically, in the event of employee termination, the Agent is granted the power to satisfy the 'demand for wages' requirement by ensuring payment is made within twenty-four (24) hours of said demand as required by Minn. Stat. § 181.13. The Agent shall further be authorized to provide the mandatory written notices required under Minn. Stat. § 181.101 to all employees, covering itemized wage statements and terms of employment.
The Agent shall have the authority to represent the Principal before the Minnesota Board of Barber Examiners and any applicable health department. This includes the power to execute any applications for shop license renewals, represent the shop in sanitation violation hearings, and oversee the implementation of workplace safety standards mandated by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The Agent is empowered to hire professionals to rectify any health or safety hazards that could lead to shop closure or civil liability.
In exercising authority over employment contracts or booth rental agreements, the Agent is expressly prohibited from including or attempting to enforce non-compete clauses against barbers or employees, in accordance with the 2023 Minnesota ban on such agreements (Minn. Stat. § 181.991). The Agent shall instead focus on protecting the shop's goodwill through lawful trade secret protections and non-solicitation clauses as permitted under Minnesota law.
[agent shop access instruction]
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have executed this Power of Attorney on the date first written above.
Principal
Name: Principal
Date: 2026-04-07
Running a high-traffic barber shop in Minnesota involves balancing licensing requirements, sanitation standards, and complex labor laws. If you are incapacitated or unavailable, your business risks closure due to unpaid booth rental fees, OSHA violations, or non-compliance with the Minnesota Wage Theft Prevention Act. A industry-specific Power of Attorney ensures a designated agent can step in immediately to handle shop management, legal disputes over chair rentals, and mandatory MN state board filings, protecting both your livelihood and your license.
Yes, provided you grant them specific powers over business operations. In Minnesota, these agents must ensure modified agreements comply with the Statute of Frauds (Minn. Stat. § 513.01) if the lease term exceeds one year, and they must navigate the state's strict ban on collective non-compete agreements for most barbers.
The Wage Theft Prevention Act (Minn. Stat. § 181.101) requires specific written notices to your employees. Your agent will be empowered to issue these notices, process payroll, and ensure that terminated employees receive their final check within the required 24-hour window under Minn. Stat. § 181.13.
No, an attorney-in-fact does not need a barber license to handle financial or legal matters. However, you should authorize them to interface with the Minnesota Board of Barber Examiners to ensure health, safety, and sanitation standards are maintained to avoid establishment license revocation.
While the responsibility for safety remains with the establishment owner, this document allows your agent to respond to OSHA inspections, sign safety abatement documents, and implement mandatory sanitation protocols required by the state cosmetology and barber boards.
