Re: Power of Attorney
I can comment generally about your question but
directly answer your question because too many
other issues may change the answer, for example,
cosigning agreements and the like. Generally, a
power of attorney does not make someone liable for
your debts, particularly since the power of attorney
expires if you die (that is when the will takes over).
To revoke a power of attorney, you file a revocation
with the county clerk and serve a copy of it on the
attorney (i.e. your mom).
