Hi. is it possible to override the Power of Attorney ( financial and health care) my brother holds for our Mom?

She desperately needs a home health aide but he refuses to hire one. He thinks he can do it all himself and does not want to pay someone.

How can I take control of her money to pay for an aide.

Thank you for your time.

Yes, with a guardianship proceeding in the Surrogate Court but you will not succeed if your mom is lucid; meaning, if she still has the capacity to make some decisions no matter how they may not be the best decision.
