If the attorney has lost trust, the principal may revoke the power of attorney

According to the jurisprudence, also of the Supreme Court, granting a power of attorney is an expression of special trust, which means that it may be revoked at any time, and not only subject to automatic expiry upon the death of the principal or the attorney himself/herself. No special form is required to revoke the power of attorney, a declaration of intent regarding the revokation is sufficient. This is confirmed by Tomasz Krzywański and Olga Sulewska, GWW experts asked about this issue in the article published on Prawo.pl.
