 Most people will go to a notary public or a lawyer to prepare their power of attorney. In fact, you must sign the power of attorney in the presence of a notary public or lawyer in order for the power of attorney to be recognized at the Land Title Office (see above).
-According to ICBC, your power of attorney must be '''notarized''' for your attorney to have the power to renew the insurance or sell your vehicle (if you can’t do it yourself). Notarizing means a lawyer or notary public puts his or her seal on the document when you make it, to confirm that you and the witness signed it in front of him or her.

 Particularly if you have a complicated or unusual situation, it’s best to get some professional help. If you go to a lawyer or notary public, find out how much they will charge you. Phone around and compare prices. See the "[[Where to Get Help for Power of Attorney|Where to Get Help]]" section for help finding a legal professional.
