Legal Question in Elder Law in Michigan

power of attorney

How do I go about trying to get power of attorney over my mothers affairs so as to stop my brother from pilfering the estate to the point of her loosing everything. He is inconpetant and now lives back with her after loosing his own house from not paying taxes. She is not able or willing to try to handle her own affairs.
