I called my brother for help when the apartment manager said she couldn’t stay at home alone while I was at work. He moved back from California, and basically took over, moved me out of my mom‘s apartment as caregiver moved himself in and tried to keep me away by any means possible ! he has booksmart and got medical power attorney without anybody’s permission,,my brother stole all powers fradulently and had my( the only one that truly wants to help my mother taken off of 2nd. Dpoa one year after 1st dpoa with all three kids on it. Paul and sherry were never supposed to be on as any kind of power over my mother snd this nursing home is making her decine rapidly. I have a wonderful home plan but cant get her out. She wants out!

My father has had multiple UTIs in the past year. He is showing the same delirium symptoms again. The nursing home checked blood and urine and says he is ok, but they put him on antipsych meds! I have been asking to have him sent to the hospital and they don’t want to. Can I as POA make them? He initialed the 2 parts of “effective immediately”. He might say to me he will go, but if they ask him he might say no because he’s tired. But something is very wrong and it needs to be checked! Top neurologist 3 weeks ago rated him A-/B+ with mild cognitive impairment. Now something is wrong and they don’t know what!

A POA for assets was drafted at the time will was done, w/brother listed as executor. Dad remarried, had dimentia & fell, then went to AL. I think his spouse left him alone at the time & went to work w/o arranging oversight.Another POA was drafted around that time,w/spouse. Fast fwd, Dad passed 7/17 from another fall at AL. Spouse didn’t give a copy of POA til after dad passed & wasn’t/isn’t upholding fudiciary duties. For example, spouse didn’t pay Neptune Society balance due for cremation that was set up before dad passed. We had to pay it after bc spouse refused. Also, we took over managing Social Security & VA benefits bc spouse wasn’t paying AL facility @one point.VA had contacted us bc dad was about to be evicted! Spouse never gave accounting of where the monies went (in addition to other things, ie stimulus checks, wallet, taxes, etc.). Plus, back pay to AL had to be repaid from Dad’s benefits, it was like he paid twice & that was after spouse agreed to make payments for it & never did! In sum, how do we get what we need to execute the will? Spouse agreed to manage affairs prior when the POA was signed & notorized…isn’t this abuse of the POA?

My mom is 82, saved no money, and spent it all. Now, she needs a nursing home. She will get Medicare and possibly Medicaid coverage, but if there is an extra charge, can Ohio legally hold me financially responsible for her unpaid bills if I live in Michigan? Ohio has a familial fiduciary law, but I don’t think it applies if the adult children live in other states that do not have a similar law. Is that correct?

My father who is 61 is currently hospitalized in ICU, I need to start the process for his va claim since he us a veteran but need poa, unfortunately he needs to consent. Because he is sedated and unable to communicate, I need to obtain temporary emergency guardianship so that I may go on his behalf so he can get health benefits and help from the va since he is a veteran. He is Diabetic and was also exposed to the Triple ATF when he was a firefighter in the Navy I have his DD214 and just need to obtain the emergency temporary guardianship how can I do that
