Powers of attorney for property in Mexico

A Chicago resident who needs someone in Mexico to sell property, collect an inheritance or deal with a government office needs a power of attorney that Mexico will accept. One route is to sign it before the Mexican consulate in Chicago, which acts as a notary for documents to be used in Mexico and drafts them in Spanish from the start.

The other is a US-notarized power of attorney, apostilled by the Illinois Secretary of State and translated into Spanish - and a Mexican notary may require that translation to come from an officially recognized expert translator in Mexico. Ask the notary in Mexico before choosing; the consular route often avoids the problem entirely.
