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 2026-04-19, 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. 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 granted specific authority to negotiate, execute, and amend contracts relating to the Principal’s vocal performances, including but not limited to session fees, buyouts, and residuals. This authority is subject to the Copyright Act of 1976 and requires the Agent to ensure that all usage rights are explicitly defined by duration, territory, and medium. The Agent shall have the power to initiate claims for non-payment or unauthorized usage of the Principal's raw audio or finished recordings.
The Agent shall exercise their powers in strict accordance with the Arizona Consumer Fraud Act (A.R.S. § 44-1521 et seq.) and shall not engage in deceptive practices regarding the Principal's availability or professional endorsements. Furthermore, pursuant to Arizona’s Right-to-Work status under A.R.S. § 23-1501, the Agent is prohibited from entering into any agreement that conditions the Principal’s employment or recording session upon mandatory union membership or the payment of unauthorized dues.
As Arizona is a community property state, the Agent is hereby notified that income derived from the Principal's voiceover services may be subject to interest by a spouse. The Agent must maintain meticulous records of all session fees and residual payments received (A.R.S. § 14-5501) to distinguish between community assets and individual professional expenses, ensuring compliance with Arizona's fiduciary standards for attorneys-in-fact.

In the high-speed world of voiceovers, missing a booking or a renewal deadline can mean lost residuals and damaged client relationships. As a professional in Arizona, you need a specialized Power of Attorney that empowers an agent—such as a manager, spouse, or dedicated representative—to sign session fee agreements, negotiate usage buyouts, and manage licensing disputes while you are in the booth or unavailable. This document is tailored for Arizona's unique community property laws and consumer protection standards, ensuring your vocal IP remains protected and profitable.
Beyond the standard power of attorney sections, this template adds fields specific to Voiceover Artist:
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.
Usage Rights Disputes
Contracts should clearly define the scope, duration, and territory of usage rights to prevent unauthorized use and ensure compliance with agreed terms.
Non-Payment
Yes. By specifically granting 'Usage Rights Authority' in your Power of Attorney, your agent can execute contracts regarding the scope, duration, and territory of your recordings. This is critical for preventing unauthorized use and ensuring compliance with the Copyright Act of 1976.
Arizona is a community property state. This means income earned from voiceover sessions during a marriage may be considered joint property. Your Power of Attorney should explicitly address whether your agent has the authority to manage community assets or only separate intellectual property.
Yes. For a Power of Attorney to be enforceable in Arizona, it typically requires the principal's signature to be acknowledged before a notary public and, depending on the specific powers granted (such as real property or durable status), may require at least one witness signature.
Absolutely. You can grant your agent the specific power to resolve disputes regarding revision scope and additional session fees, ensuring you are compensated for work beyond the original contract terms.
