Personal Injury Glossary
Attorney-in-Fact: A private person (who is not necessarily
a lawyer) authorized by another to act in his or her place, either
for some particular purpose, as to do a specific act, or for the
transaction of business in general, not of legal character. This
authority is conferred by an instrument in writing, called a
letter of attorney, or more commonly a power of attorney.
