Avvo Question
Someone on Avvo recently asked: "My sister in law has medical poa over my mother in law. She has my mother in law in a nursing home locked dementia unit."
Answer from Bowling Green, OH Estate Planning Attorney Staten Middleton: "Another point is the person acting under a valid financial POA may have control over your mother in laws assets including the home. That may include the power to evict someone from the home. This all depends on the validity and powers contained in the financial POA as well as the title "ownership" of the house. I would suggest you speak with an attorney capable in these matters to confirm these issues for you."
