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 specifically authorized to negotiate, execute, and amend licensing agreements for the Principal’s vocal performances, including but not limited to broadcast usage rights, buyouts, and renewals as governed by the Copyright Act of 1976. This authority includes the power to define and limit the territory, duration, and medium of use to prevent unauthorized distribution and to ensure that all 'pick-up sessions' and 'revisions' are billed in accordance with the Principal’s established rate card and Georgia's standards for valuable consideration under O.C.G.A. § 13-3-40.
The Agent shall have the power to monitor and enforce exclusivity clauses within the Principal’s professional contracts. In accordance with Georgia's Restrictive Covenants Act (O.C.G.A. § 13-8-50 et seq.), the Agent is empowered to decline potential engagements that present a conflict of interest or violate the geographic and durational scope of existing agreements recorded in the Principal’s portfolio, thereby mitigating liabilities related to breach of contract.
In the event of non-payment for rendered voiceover services, the Agent is authorized to initiate collection actions and legal proceedings. This includes the right to seek interest on late payments as permitted under Georgia law and to navigate garnishment procedures where disposable earnings of the debtor may be subject to recovery. All such actions shall be performed while maintaining compliance with the Georgia Fair Business Practices Act to ensure the professional reputation of the Principal is upheld during dispute resolution.

As a voiceover artist in Georgia, your business relies on managing complex intellectual property assets, from demo reels to long-term usage rights. A standard Power of Attorney often fails to address the nuances of 'work-for-hire' agreements or digital audio distribution. By designating an agent to handle late payments, session fee negotiations, and exclusivity conflicts in your absence, you ensure your professional voice remains protected under the Georgia Fair Business Practices Act and O.C.G.A. § 13-3-40 even when you cannot act personally.
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
Contracts can include clear payment terms, milestones, and late fees to protect against non-payment. Including clauses for interest on late payments is also common.
Yes, provided the 'Powers Granted' section explicitly includes the authority to manage intellectual property, licensing, and broadcast contracts. This allows your agent to handle renewals or extensions of commercial usage rights under the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976.
While O.C.G.A. § 34-7-1 establishes at-will employment, most VO work is contractual. Your Power of Attorney should empower your agent to enforce specific session terms and revision limits that supersede at-will assumptions in independent contractor relationships.
Yes. To be legally enforceable in Georgia, a Power of Attorney must be signed by the principal, witnessed by at least one competent adult, and authenticated by a notary public to satisfy state verification requirements.
Yes. Your agent can be granted the specific power to pursued missed session fees and late payments, utilizing Georgia's debtor-friendly garnishment laws (O.C.G.A. § 13-5-30) to recover funds from non-compliant clients.
