How can a sick, now unemployed, interested party to his mother's will get help to contest his sister's POA and now the misapprpriation of assets?
Question Details: Mother died with Alzheimers. DX'd BEFORE 2001. He has will written in '77. Sister got POA and got will in '97. She has sold ALL real property, T bonds, insurance policies,stocks, etc.etc, and jewelry. They DO NOT appear on the 1st or 2nd inventory. No money is being held in accounts from these sales. Her life and her chldrens' have improved dramatically for a non-working mother with a "fix-it, handy-man" husband. New SUVs, pool, large home addtions. Mom kept in an adult daycare for mentally retarded young and old adults. Sis said, "I saved the estate money." WHAT money?? HELP! He has nothing!!

If you are the interested son, you need to get in touch with an attorney as soon as possible, because time to contest what your sister has done -- and, if it is indeed as you say, she has completely violated the law and your rights -- is probably growing very short, if it isn't already too late. One place to find a qualified lawyer is our website, http://attorneypages.com
It sounds like there is a very large amount of money involved, and what seems like some fairly gross and obvious wrongdoing. You should be able to find a lawyer who will take this case on a contingent fee, a "piece of the action," who won't ask you to pay him or her up front.
