Medical Malpractice Attorneys and Lawyers

Declared incompetent. Power of Attorney for financial not Medical.?

My Grandmother is ill. My Father has Power of Attorney for her financail stuff but no one has the medical Power of Attorney. THere are 3 children. One is disabled and dying. Who will get granted the medial advocate? WHat if the 3 do not agree? Do they take in consideration who has other "powers". Thanks for any help. Florida is the State we live in. Do they consider if one family member is more involved in her life? If she picked one child to be one everything financail and be power of attorney for financial stuff .... Do they ever think maybe he is more suited?

  1. Depends. What state or country?
  2. it depends on where you live. The disabled child will not be in the running. The court will look at 2 remaining child. If neither have no criminal record, major debt(in the sense that grandma dying would be beneficial to them) then a mediaitor will take all the info and make a decision. Usually when family members can not agree, they tend not to give to much power to one child, so your father has the financial power of attorney, they will most likely give medical power of attorney to the other child
