My dad’s wife of 41 years filed for divorce in California a couple of years ago. She left the state when he had a major surgery 7 months ago and it was then that he made me his DPOA because he said he couldn’t do his bills or paperwork or drive anymore. He’s physically much better now that I helped him get into a memory care facility and the happiest I’ve seen him in years. However, his mind is steadily declining. Will I need more than DPOA to help him finalize their divorce?
His wife maybe able to get the divorce without him.
Glad to hear your dad is doing better. I would definitely check with an elder law attorney or even divorce attorney to get more clarification.
