You will need to file a formal Petition for Inventory and Accounting. If you are dissatisfied with what is produced, you can challenge the accuracy of the inventory and accounting provided in the pending probate case.

The designation in poas creates a preference for the designated. The issue still needs to go before a judge if a guardian and or conservator is to be appointed.

Another question is why do you need the courts involvement if you already have poas. See an elder law attorney in Georgia.

Will names your sister as "guardian." Perhaps you mean executor? I think I would be more worried about what is in your father and mother's estate and how to get your fair share of this, rather than weather or not you can sue a bank.

See or call a Georgia Estate attorney.

You aren't required to talk to her or have any dealings with her. You can also write a will or estate plan excluding her if you wish.

There is a lot to unpack in this question. First, you are not able to bring a lawsuit on behalf of another unless they are a minor over which you have custody, or they are incompetent to bring a suit on their own for some other reason and you are the guardian, custodian, or have a power of attorney...

No, the agent’s authority under a power of attorney is not assignable or delegable. The best solution would have been for your husband to have named a successor agent in the existing power of attorney. Chances are, however, it is too late for that because he lacks capacity. If you pass most... View More

Wow. Sounds like you're into it. Did you have a question for us? You gave us a story; not a question. We can only answer questions that you put to us.

There are many other pieces of information we would need to provide a competent response. That said, you would not want to include the daughter and husband on the mortgage. Why would you unless they, too, are going to be co-borrowers? Perhaps you are thinking about putting them on the d-e-e-d... View More

A Georgia attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for four weeks. If you are unable to consult with an attorney on this, a Georgia architect could possibly offer guidance about where to research building codes, fire safety codes, or other applicable statutory authority. Good luck... View More

Yes. I am not clear on "medical consultant" but a power of attorney can include provisions to allow the agent to access medical records. It is also recommended that an advance directive for healthcare be completed as this will appoint an agent for healthcare decisions.

1. An evaluation is required by law and the court cannot simply order that it not occur.

2. The State of Georgia along with all people and entities must recognize the Order

3. As for prohibiting or denying an application for services, that is not connected to the guardianship... View More

You should talk to both a professional care manager and an elder law attorney about options for support caring for your mom. She might be eligible for Medicaid to pay for assisted living or skilled nursing, depending on the level of care needed. Good elder law attorneys either have professional... View More

You should consult with an attorney who can review the facts of the case in detail and present you with your options. Whether or not you can try to get him discharged largely comes down to the facts of the case. -Homer P. Jordan IV, Esq. 404-620-1558

Your question suggests that you're under the belief you reached a law firm. This is not a law firm; it's a forum where lawyers answer questions. If you're seeking a lawyer, you could go to the lawyer listings on this site, or you could search through your own independent efforts.... View More

Everything you have been told is accurate. You can ask the lawyer for a copy of the documents he filed in court to get approval to pay you. You can also ask the probate court for a copy of the document he filed for permission to pay you.

It is difficult to provide you with an accurate answer, more information is needed. It is best to consult with an estate planning/elder law attorney who can assist you with the specifics of your case.

I wish you well.

Without more details, it is difficult to provide you with an accurate answer. Generally speaking, protective orders are not granted unless there is evidence to support it. If you are a co-owner, you cannot be evicted, however if a TPO is granted, you obviously cannot remain in the home. For these... View More

What is the legal question for us? I don't know what the question is that you are asking. Maybe you could re-write it so that the question is clear so that we can provide you with feedback. -Homer P. Jordan IV, Esq. 404-620-1558 HomerJordan.com

You’ve not really given enough information to tell. Title 19, as you probably know is commonly called “Medicaid.” This program is intended to pay for medical care for people who don't have enough money to pay their medical bills. While your mother is not “entitled” to Medicaid... View More
