If he is lucid he can sign a power of attorney, if not then you have to get a court ordered guardianship. Contact my office for free consultation 727-446-7659

Is the girlfriend on his checking/saving accounts - if so not much you can do about his finances. You will need to l. get a power of attorney or 2. file for guardianship if your father is unable to represent himself.
