Recording your Alabama POA
The sections Alabama cites govern recording the agent's conveyance, not the power of attorney itself: a conveyance required by law to be recorded is recorded in the office of the judge of probate (Ala. Code §35-4-50), in the county where the property is situated (§35-4-62(a)). Neither section requires the power of attorney to be recorded.
The recording office is the office of the Judge of Probate in the county where the property lies. See Ala. Code §§35-4-50, 35-4-62.
