Anon asked:


Pretty much self explanitory. Additionally, what if the person seeking power or attorney is already executor of the person’s will and is the person’s only living descendant? If the person cannot communicate or is not of sound mind, what do you do?

      A person who is incapacitated cannot give anyone their power of attorney.

      A court may grant guardianship to a person to take care of decisions for the incapacitated person. Consult your attorney as soon as possible. This is not something that can be done without an attorney in most jurisdictions.

      If the person is the only living relative then they are the spokesperson for them unless a court orders someone else, if there is controversy then the relative needs to petition the court for guardianship.~

      You really need to discuss this matter with a lawyer, to understand what the law requires of you.
