Grandfathers property
My Grandfather has been put into an assited living facility, he has moderate alzheimers. He lives in his own studio, without a full kitchen. He is also able to go on outing with the group. He still recognizes family and is cognitive most days. My question is, do his children have the right to dispose of all of his household items and rent his house, without telling him?
They say it is for financial reason, but are unwilling to talk to him about his money. He still asks questions about his SSI checks and mail, which they give him very little of. I would just like to know if they can leagally start getting rid of his estate, when he is not deceased yet.
Re: Grandfathers property
No, unless grandfather is under a conservatorship which gives his children authority, or unless he gave them a durable general power of attorney under which they are operating, or unless all of his assets are in a trust and his children are successor trustees.
Create Your Legacy & Save the American Middle Class� How to Plan for Death & Disability Without a Lawyer and Win the Love and Admiration of Your Family and Loved Ones is a book I have written that discusses all this and more in lay terms. It's short and understandable and available for download on one of my websites, www.yourlivinglegacy.info
