- Q. How to address discrepancies with a POA managing a property sale in Louisiana?
- A: More information is needed here ---for example, is the POA actually a POA, and if so, did all 6 siblings give the agent the POA --I ask because if this is a simple POA, then the principal can simply revoke the POA. Or is the POA actually your agent under a contact to provide services----if there is a contract, then what are the terms of the contract, including the right to terminate.

- Q. How to remove POA refusing memory care for elderly veteran with dementia?
- A: If the principal (patient) is considered competent, or has periods where he is lucid, then he can sign a document revoking that power of attorney.

- Q. How can I regain my property after a foreclosure and pending court actions?
- A: There is not enough information to provide a specific answer, however, if you file the suit with an attorney representing you then I recommend that you speak to your attorney and discuss these concerns. If you file the suit without a lawyer representing you, then I congratulate you on the progress you made thus far as if what you write it true, then it looks like you have a chance---that said, if you filed the suit without a lawyer representing you, then I would strongly recommend that you hire a lawyer to represent you moving forward----the defendants will have a lawyer so you need to have one to protest your rights. Good luck.
