Elder law

91yr.old father caring for 91yr old mom (gastric cancer and Alz) and I am part caretaker. (cook, shop,laundry, meet ev. wk with hospice nurse and SW.APS was notified few mths back of ''neglect'', I guess. I think the SW reported them, don't know why. House is clean, mother has a bath lady 5 days a week, I monitor the house, etc. APS popped up again because father cancelled the bathe lady 2 times last week and that is a NO NO and a stipulation from the APS. also get MOWheels 5 days a week.APS want me to get father a geriatric assessment, which is fine. But just HOW much clout does the agency have? They are saying I must ''wrap my mind around'' getting them into assisted living. Do I need an atty, how do I get father to tell me his ''assets'', he is very close mouthed about money. I got a general idea 2 years ago when I sat with a planner and him. Also, is there a way to protect any of his money and the house? Can he quit claim to me and my sister, I don't really know what to do.

Guardianship of parent

My mother has dementia. She refuses to move to an assisted living residence. If someone gets guardianship of her what is that persons obligations if any for any bills she has or may incur? She is on Medical Assistance. Would any of that have to be paid back after she passes on?

power of attorney

If someone has POA for me, can he negate my decisions if I have not yet been declared mentally incompetent? For example, if I decide I want to spend money on something, can my POA agent prevent me? If I want to give something or money to someone, can my agent tell me I can't....etc.?

unpaid medical bills after parents death

my father recently passed away. He has some unpaid medical bills. Who is responsible for these bills now. my mother is still living, but her name is not on any of his medical bills. She is joint on the credit card bill, so I'm assuming she is responsible for it. After her death, she's 91, who is responsible for the credit card bill. There is no estate.

Elder law

What can you do to have someone with alzheimer's committed to a facility when they become a danger to themselves, and others? I've talked to her children, to no avail...and this poor woman lives alone. I have spoken to a judge about this issue, and am told there is nothing that can be done.

Looking for an attorney

I am looking for an atty in the Franklin, Canton, Dedham area experienced in litigation, elder law, wills and probate to bring a civil suit against Elder Services, for ignoring a report I made about elder abuse, which resulted in the death of my mother, and sueing my brother for abuse of power of attorneyy and financial abuse of my mother.

Take conservatorship from daughter

My sister is mentally incompetent. My wife would like conservator & guardian for my sister, but we've received a total of 16,000 in past for paying rent & utilities a few times. The court didn't know. I've had a bankruptcy, but my wife is squeaky clean. She pays all the bills. But for the last 10 months of taking care of Gloria, we've been getting money to pay for her rent, utilities, food, clothes, personal, etc...started at $3,200, then 3,000, now for the past 3 mos. it's 2,000. Lately, she is maxing her c.c. We know her mos. retire, S.S. was $3,000 and now is 2,600. Mostly my wife takes care of her 14/7 for free. Gloria can not be left alone and needs constant CARE which makes it impossible for my wife to have a paying job. 14 hrs/7 x $8 hr, 10 mo. We did our homework and the facilities start at 3,500 for basic care. (She's more). If the economy was doing well and we had money already, I wouldn't ask...she's my sister. Would the judge still favor us? Would the judge consider the 16,000 we've received compensation for care of Gloria for all those hours? We have proof the conservator is mis-using Gloria's money on a new E350 Mecedes. All we really want is a certain amount of money every month for everything.

signing house over to sibling

My sister has lived off and on at my mothers house for over six months and now has her living with her at her own home. She was told that she can be listed as part owner of that home since she lived there. She also has just sold that home and claims the money won't can't be touched by Medicaid. Is that true and as my mothers other daughter would I be eligible for part of those proceeds?

Guardianship of a Grandparent

I am an 18 year old adult taking care of my 68 year old schizophrenic grandmother. She has been financially taken advantage of by other family members. While in their care, her small social security pension was treated as a community free-for-all. She recently put all of her assets into my possession. Now that I am applying to be her caregiver, all of her relatives are harassing me for the position and her property. Legally, would a written agreement/contract suffice? Or would it be necessary for me to become her guardian or conservator?

elderly law

I want to be appointed as the legal guardian for my mother in case something happens. what can I do?

To Rick Bryan

Thank you very much for your reply. My mother did have a power of attorney and a health care proxy signed a few months before the guardianship proceedings ever started, but that didn't seem to make a difference. The guardianship still went through and my mother is paying for all of it. My mother does not have alot of money (approximately $25,000.00 left). She started out with $53,000.00 in the beginning of the guardianship. Where are my mother's rights? Are all her rights gone? Everybody is making sure they fill their pockets, but nobody seems to care that my mother will be left with nothing and if an emergency happens in her house (repairs, etc) where would she get the money for that?

Now my brother is taking me back to Court to have me investigated on what I did with my mother's money for the year or so before the guardianship? Who has to pay for that? My mother?? I have nothing to hide but if my brother wants to do this - will my mother be paying again for his attorney fees and court examiners fees for this investigation. The court examiner said that he is now going to investigate my brother for the 4 1/2 years he took over my mother's finances (before the guardianship).
