My father is 94 and has 4 surviving offspring. One son has power of attorney over medical decisions and another son has power of attorney over financial decisions. The one with power of attorney over financial decisions is seeking guardianship over the objection of the remaining siblings. Is he likely to be granted guardianship in this situation?
The other person who matters most is the brother with POA for health and welfare decisions. I assume that's not you, or you'd have said so? What's his take on the situation?
In light of all of the above, would sitting down with a mediator be a possible route?
cwillie, thank you for your observation. I hadn't considered that.
In many cases all of the paperwork is prepared and presented in court by an attorney. Certainly helpful to have an attorney torepresent those challenging the one seeking appointment.
