Can they do that? If they can how can I protect myself?
1 Answer from Attorneys
Your siblings can argue that you have not acted in your mother's best interests and take you to Court in an attempt to prove that and remove you as your mother's Trustee and/or Agent under a Power of Attorney. I recommend that you hire a lawyer to fully evaluate this situation. It's likely that the lawyer's fee will be paid with your mother's funds. If you'd like to discuss this, feel free to call me.
