Having to take my mother to court to prove that she's not competent has been one of the most trying of all things in my life, so far.
At this point we have spent many thousands of dollars in court to try to stop my mom from firing me as her power of attorney (POA) and disinheriting me for the 5th time.
She has a history of severe mental instability that has just been made worse by the death of my father in 2015. Since then, for fear I would have her psychiatrically commited she has stolen my business smart phone (for fear I would record and sumbit to the authorities her rants and ravings) and fired me as her POA (twice in the past two years and disinherited me 4 times in the past 17 years.
My family cannot allow her to terrorize us with her threats and action and manipulations any more and thus we hired one of the best Estate Litagation teams in the country and as of April have had to go to court to prove she was not competent to fire me as her POA this past Winter. Her previous lawyer who handled her legal affairs refused to continue as her lawyer this past Fall and the only lawyer she could find to fire me has been a person my lawyer has out-and-out called a "shyster". The Judge in the case has already removed this lawyer of my mom's from representing my mother in this matter before his court and the judge assigned a lawyer for my mom that is highly respected in this Estate Litigation court.
We are struggling financially to have liquid assests to pay our ongoing legal bills (at the end of July 2017 here we expect another bill for at least $5K! S)
Please pray that we can see this battle through and that we can reconcile somehow with my mom and see an amicible/friendly solution to her bitter rejection of me. She is not well and we need the best Geriatric Psychiatrist in the area to be permitted to examione and assess her competency and give expert testimony on whether she was competent to fire me and disinherit me.
Blessings as you pray!
