What you get
The kit, and what comes after.
- 01A durable power of attorney tracking the KRS 457.420 statutory short-form. You name an agent (and a successor agent) and choose which authorities to grant. The form names the categories Kentucky law uses; you check what applies.
- 02A signing-instruction packet. A Kentucky durable POA must be signed before a notary. The packet walks you through that step, plus how the agent uses it with banks and providers.
- 03Optional: Kentucky-attorney review (+$200). A Kentucky-licensed attorney reviews your AI-drafted POA and returns a redlined draft before delivery. You execute on your own using the notary guide.
- 04Optional: a 30-minute attorney-supervised signing (+$300). Elton Johnson conducts the signing session and notarizes the executed POA per KRS 457.050(2); you leave with the executed original.
Inputs · Eight questions
Here's the entire form.
- Q1Your full legal name and date of birth.
- Q2Primary agent — name, relationship, contact.
- Q3Successor agent — name, relationship, contact.
- Q4Authority categories you want to grant (real estate, banking, healthcare claims, taxes, retirement, gifts, etc.).

- Q7Compensation, if any, for the agent.

When you should NOT use the kit
An honest line.
Some situations need a tailored POA, not a kit form. Call Johnson Legal PLLC directly if any of these apply:
- ·You hold business interests you want the agent to manage.
- ·You expect a family member to challenge the agent's authority.
- ·You need a healthcare-specific instrument (use the advance directive kit instead).
- ·You want to limit the agent's authority in ways the statutory categories don't cleanly cover.
