1 Answer from Attorneys
No, she has no rights to make decisions regarding your father unless your father has given her power of attorney to make healthcare or financial decisions for him. If you feel your father needs assistance in making these types of decisions and he is competent you should have a discussion with him regarding having him execute a power of attorney to a family member who he trusts and is more suitable to make decisions for him. If he is not competent, you can seek a guardianship of him through the probate court in the county he resides. If you need assistance or would like a consultation, please contact my office at your convenience. www.socrateslegal.com.
