Legal Question in Elder Law in Florida

My mother has dementia and I am taking care of her in her house. I can't get paid because I'm on disability but use her money for groceries and cook for her. Two of my brothers help me every now and are happy I am helping her because i'm a woman. But my third brother doesn't talk to me anymore and I found out he talked her in to leaving him her home in a will about 3 or 4 years ago...probably convinced my mother (that i am taking care of her in). I am the durable POA. What should I do? Will he get the home if something happens to her?

Did she have dementia at the time she gave him the deed. If so, you can challenge in a court of law and have if voided.

Has she been diagnosed by a physician of her condition? If that took place prior to leaving it to him in her will, then that too will help you.
