• My friend has property and assets that she is worried about her children trying to control. Is there a way she can control the management of those things if she becomes unable to make decisions for herself?
• Can my friend write the power of attorney herself?
• Are there ways to review the conduct of the person who is given the power of attorney?
• How can my friend feel confident that her children will not try to put the document creating the enduring power of attorney into effect before she is truly unable to make her own decisions?
• If my friend has made a will and a power of attorney, will they contradict each other when she has passed away?
