<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m looking for some help on finding the requirements of executing a Power of Attorney prior to the Uniform POA Act. Let’s suppose there is a power of attorney from early 2000’s that was notarized but the photocopy did not pick up the “raised”
notary seal. If banks will not accept a copy of the POA because the seal is not legible, and the original cannot be located, is there recourse to pursue a claim against the bank? Thanks for your help.<o:p></o:p></p>
