- Q. If my father is under the care of his brother who is not using his disability check correctly
- A: If you feel that your father is being financially abused by his brother the first step would be to file a report with adult protective services in your area. You may also want to file a petition for appointment of yourself as conservator of the person and estate of your father. Consult with an attorney in your area to determine whether this is a viable option. You can find out more about conservatorships on your local superior court website. Many courts offer conservatorship workshops for persons proceeding without an attorney.
- Q. What can be done if my sibling (my brother) is refusing to return $45,000 cash belonging to my parents (age 91 & 86)?
- A: A good start would be to make a police report and file a report with adult protective services. It may take them awhile to start an investigation but when they do it may convince your brother to return the money. You could file a complaint for financial elder abuse but most attorneys will charge you hourly. Attorneys fees are recoverable in financial elder abuse cases.
- Q. The county became conservitor over my god father , while I have power of attorney and without notifying me .
- A: Unfortunately there is insufficient information in your question to give you a definitive answer. Your best option is to consult with an attorney regarding probate of your god mother's estate, terminating the conservatorship of your god father or your appointment as conservator instead.
