Power of attorney is taking money
Ask a Lawyerwhat's this?
Question
Country: United States of AmericaState: California
I have an elderly Grandmother who gave power of attorney to her daughter in law; the daughter in law is taking money from her bank accounts and hides the bank statements from her so she won't "worry". What can we do to help if Grandma can't believe she is being ripped off by her daughter-in-law?
Answer
You can ask her to revoke it--or seek a court order if you feel grandma is not competent. Even the threat to involve the court may have some effect.These questions and answers are provided by WORLDLawDirect.com. ©2000 - 2007 by WORLDLawDirect.com, Inc.
