Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in North Carolina
what do I need to do to revoke a dual power of attorney,and do I have to get the original POA from the lawyer my husband retained to draw it up?
My husband had me sign a POA without reading it while I was under a lot of medication.Now that I am no longer on anti-depressants I want to revoke the POA as my husband has put all monies,stocks,real estate and my destiny in my Son's authority should my husband pass away. I do not want my Son to have this power as He is on narcotic drugs and I know if my husband passed away,my son would sell everything for drugs.Please help.

You wouldn't need the original power of attorney but you should get a lawyer to help you draft a revocation, file it in the appropriate places and send to the appropriate parties.
