In need of advice from a POA.

If anyone is a POA over their parent, could you please DM me. I have some questions I would like to ask but not on a public forum.


Thank you.

My first statement would be a POA is not OVER a parent. A POA is to act to fulfill your parent's desires when they cannot; to execute their directions. When or if they are no longer able to make decisions because of physical or mental infirmity, then the POA may need to make decisions on their behalf. Hopefully before that time comes, the parent has communicated their instructions.

It would be unwise to get legal guidance from an anonymous global forum where there is no accountability. You have no idea whether any information given to you is legitimate or even legal for your parent's state of residence or per what is laid out in the PoA document. Please seek actual legal advice from a CELA.

This forum is anonymous.

POAs can be written in many different ways, depending upon the State the grantor resides in and their intent.

The best person to answer your questions would be a certified eldercare attorney.
