Re: Grandmothers Belongings
The answer to your question depends upon the type of power of attorney and whether your grandmother is legally incapacitated. If your grandmother is of sound mind, she still has the ability to transfer her belongings. The mere fact that your grandmother is in an assisted living home does not give you the right to her belongings.
