How many copies of a Power of Attorney should I sign?

You are required to sign (execute) only one copy. However, it is not unusual for a principal to sign several original copies. Some banks and brokerage companies have their own durable power of attorney forms. If you want your attorney-in-fact to have an easy time with these institutions, you may need to prepare two (or more) durable powers of attorney with your own form and forms provided by the institutions with which you do business.
