Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California
I have a Durable Power of Attorney for California. Prinicipal lives in California and attorney in fact lives in Washington state. Bank told attorney in fact that she would need one for Washington? I do not think that is correct? Does it even matter what state the durable power attorney form is for?

A Power of Attorney grants only the same right to do or refrain from doing something that the person being acted for could do. That person would need a Washington form for a bank in Washington; so you also do.
