Hi all,

Not sure for definate but I think in brazil you do plus it means that you wouldnt have to travel to brazil ebverytime something needs signing etc!

I have done it with my solicitors in bulgaria and cyprus-just makes life a lot easier and cheaper!

Dont worry it means they can sign documents etc on your behalf and attend courts or notaries and deal with legal documents on your behalf and not that theyll run away with your property and sell it from under you!

You are still protected when it comes to things like this-and whatever they have to sign for you even with the power of attourney they still need to varify it and you will still have to authorise them anyway to sign on your behalf etc!

Hope this helped a little!

See ya D
