Summary

The bill changes the Illinois Power of Attorney Act to delete two specific grounds a bank, title company, or other third party could use to refuse honoring a property power of attorney. It eliminates refusals based on an agent’s refusal to provide a certified copy of the original document and on a principal’s attorney refusing to certify the POA’s validity. The goal is to make it easier for agents to act for their principals.
