How can I obtain a power of attorney from my father who has dementia?

Answered by attorney Malissa Linn Walden (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Walden Legal Solutions, LLC
Powers of Attorney are given by a person to their agent. If one is incapacitated, he is no longer able to give up those powers. That means that your father would not be able to assign you as his agent under a Powers of Attorney. The only way you would be able to take care of his medical and financial decisions on his behalf would be through a Guardianship / Conservatorship. Since these are court actions, you may want to discuss the procedures with an attorney knowledgeable in this area.

Assuming there is no will, then the land should have been distributed to your grandmother’s spouse, if living at the time of her death, and to her children living at the time of her death. Children who died, but have children, will have that child’s share distributed to the deceased child’s children.
