What do I need to write in the letter to revoke the power of attorney?
Specifically following the New York law guidelines; is there a website which gives this information away for free?; Can some1 maybe explain in detail what needs to be in this letter?
I appriciate all the serious answers i receive and all you other assmunchers who want to waste time with some nonsense answer, go play on a highway or some other area where chance of death is high.
Thank You!

To revoke a power of attorney, all that is technically needed is to inform the person with the power that it is no longer valid. A phone call will do it.
However... what you also want to do is have proof of that notice. A short letter that says "I revoke the power of attorney granted to [name]", addressed to that person, dated, signed, and sent by Certified Mail.
In addition, you should also send copies of that letter to everyone that you think might have seen the power of attorney, so that they are on notice that it was revoked. It isn't necessary to effect the revocation, but it should keep him from closing your bank account if your bank is put on notice not to honor the POA.
Don't overcomplicate it. Just state clearly that it is revoked. You are under no obligation to justify a reason.

Go to your County Clerk's office where the original Power of Attorney was filed. Tell them that you wish to revoke your Power of Attorney. They will give you all the information you need to revoke it and return your original Power of Attorney to you. Usually, all it takes is a letter to the Chief or County Clerk stating that you wish to revoke any and all Powers of Attorney previously given.
Have you told your attorney that you wish to revoke. He should be willing to cooperate with you. If not, you could file a complaint with the County Bar Association or the New York State Bar Association because what he would be doing is illegal in denying you revocation.
Enjoy your day!

Are you talking about a Power of Attorney or the Attorney Client relationship? The two are vastly different.

Get a new attorney to help you.
If you leave a loop hole the existing attorney will find it and still have your power of attorney.

if you have already started to lose your mind your lawyer could challenge your request and it may be too late for you.
