I have been the primary care giver of a parent and have had a lifetime of difficulty with older siblings - they assume I have no authority but bear all the responsibility. Because they have been involved in a lot of unscrupulous financial activity against my parents, they have now projected that upon me and made false accusations which will eventually reach the dept of aging in an appeal process. Can anyone advise a good attorney that specializes in this?
YOU would be the one to know what legal help is in your town, not us.
We can only offer you our sympathies in a case we cannot know whether you are right or you are wrong.
Good luck.
Smaller town -much collusion -very difficult to find an attorney and legitimacy with this agency.
However, if you are POA and have kept meticulous records of every penny into and out of mom's accounts you are free and clear and should simply be open to investigation.
You can also ask APS about the advisability of your getting an attorney IF they come to call.
Do know if the siblings begin to mess with this and it goes to court, and there is a huge sibling squabble then the care and guardianship of your mother will likely be moved to the state. With a lifetime of this I imagine you are tired and this may be the very best outcome?
