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 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").

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.

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.

Pursuant to Ind. Code § 22-2-2 and the Indiana Deceptive Consumer Sales Act, the Agent is empowered to demand and collect all session fees, residuals, and late payment penalties due to the Principal. The Agent may auditing client records to ensure the usage of the Principal's voice complies with the agreed-upon licensing and may sign documents necessary to resolve disputes over non-payment or revision scope beyond the initial session agreement. All actions must be conducted at-will unless a fixed duration contract is explicitly authorized by the Principal.
The Agent shall have the power to review and resolve exclusivity conflicts arising from the Principal's participation in competing brand categories.

As a voiceover artist in Indiana, your intellectual property and vocal likeness are your most valuable assets. Managing licensing agreements, buyout negotiations, and session fee collection often requires immediate action. Whether you are on location without studio access or planning for your future, an Indiana Power of Attorney allows a trusted agent to sign usage rights contracts, authorize pick-up sessions, and settle payment disputes on your behalf. Our template ensures compliance with Indiana Code § 30-5 and shields your career from the risks of non-payment and unauthorized long-term usage.
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 Power of Attorney specifically grants authority over intellectual property and contract negotiations. In Indiana, your agent can sign licensing agreements and manage your Copyright Act of 1976 protections, ensuring your vocal performance is not used beyond the agreed-upon territory or duration.
Absolutely. By granting your agent the power to manage personal property and financial claims, they can pursue late payments and enforce interest clauses for services rendered in Indiana, protecting you against common industry non-payment issues.
Under Indiana law, the document must be signed by you (the Principal) while you are of sound mind and must be notarized by a Notary Public. While Indiana does not strictly require witnesses for a financial POA, having them provides additional protection against challenges under the Indiana Deceptive Consumer Sales Act.
Yes. This is called a Special Power of Attorney. You can limit the scope specifically to your professional voiceover career, demo reel licensing, and talent agency interactions without granting authority over your personal home or medical decisions.
