How do I prove my father is not of sound mind to make his own decisions?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
First, this is a long road you're going down. It is important that you remember that your father retains all of his civil rights. The business is his, and he can give it to whom he wants. That is true until and unless it can be proven that it is a disease process that is interfering with his ability to make good decisions. That will not happen all at once. If your father does not have an estate plan and business transition plan now, see if you can convince him to see a lawyer about creating one. He also needs to keep going to doctors, as there are treatments which will slow the progression of most dementias. For your part, you need to be supportive and stick by him.

Is there emergency power of attorney if the person is in a coma?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
I am sorry for your situation. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as an emergency POA. A POA can only be given by your mother, while she has capacity to sign. That appears not to be the case, here. You could petition for guardianship, but that usually takes several weeks. I do not believe there is anything you can do from an estate planning standpoint.
