No.... He had a diagnosis of Major Neuro Cognitive Disorder and lawyers said my POA was active the day he signed it 4yrs ago before his diagnosis. He's like a quad can't write etc now. It was revealed they hand over hand signed the lease and it doesn't exercise the medical neglect.

POA doesn’t mean you have to be informed of anything and that the principle cannot make his own decisions.
unless he was declared incompetent, he’s still in charge and free to sign contracts.

Wrong. It was drawn up to be active immediately. It went before a judge already. There are broad scope POA. Mine was to handle any and all financial transactions regardless competency.

Thats the issue a county SW is involved in this and knew full well his diagnosis and my POA. They refuse to charge anyone. I believe it's because the SW was involved.

Perhaps they didn't seem to think he was mentally incapacitated? That's what the PoA is for, only when he can no longer make decisions in his own best interest. Some PoAs are written so you have to prove the incapacity. If this isn't the case it may be time to hire an elder law attorney who specializes in financial abuse so that you can recoup his monies. Sometimes just 1 letter on the attorney's letterhead is enough to get their full attention.
