The West Virginia Power of Attorney Forms are a group of legal documents used to give one person (known as the Agent or Attorney-in-Fact) the legal authority to act on behalf of the another person (usually known as the Principal, although other names are rarely used). What form the Principal needs will depend on what powers they want to give to their Attorney-in-Fact.

The most common terms used to classify Power of Attorney agreements are Immediate or Springing. These terms indicate that the Power of Attorney agreement will go into effect either immediately upon being signed or after the Principal has been declared incapable of making their own decisions. The Principal should examine their agreement carefully, and ensure they are giving over the powers they want to the Attorney-in-Fact.
