"An attorney in fact is a person authorized to sign documents on someone else\u2019s behalf, but is not necessarily a practicing lawyer. It can mean any person who has been empowered to sign documents for another individual.  When an attorney in fact signs a document, the signature should include the name of the principal he or she represents. For example, if John Smith is signing on behalf of Jane Doe, the signature might read, \u201CJohn Smith, attorney in fact for Jane Doe\u201D or \u201CJane Doe, signed by John Smith, attorney-in-fact.\u201D Attorneys in fact may only be used for acknowledgments. A jurat must always be signed, sworn or affirmed in person by the primary signer, since no one can take an oath or affirmation for another person.  When completing a certificate for an attorney in fact, all normal requirements must be met. The attorney in fact must provide satisfactory identification. Remember, you must enter the attorney in fact\u2019s name in the notarial certificate, not the absent principal\u2019s name. In the journal entry, write down the attorney in fact\u2019s information and note on whose behalf he or she is signing. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
