Legal Question in Elder Law in Missouri

Overturning POA

My g-mom has 3 surviving children and 1 of them decided to get POA without the knowledge of the others. My g-mom frequents the hospital, but her doctors have never mentioned any dementia or alzheimers. Just moments of forgetfulness. Can one of the other children fight the POA or will the 2 have to fight collectively? And what needs to be done to start the process?

Re: Overturning POA

Your grandmother can renounce and nullify the Power of Attorney (POA) Appointment herself. You have said tha tshe is able to understand her affairs most of the time. The simplest thing would be for her to revoke or cancel the POA. That is if revoking the POA is what she wants.

Good Luck
