He has money, but no children. His lawyer is making a Dr appt with a doctor of the lawyers choice and won’t allow family input. She has a history of marrying men in ill condition and changing wills to cut out family. He was only married a year. They are manipulating a vulnerable adult. Help!
If brother is doing everything as he should I do not think a non related person would gain Guardianship.
Brother should be in close, honest contact with the Attorney that he had worked with to gain Guardianship.
You say that he has money, but no children.
Secondly you call her a girlfriend.
Then you say "was only married a year".
Was she a girlfriend or a wife? If a wife, did they divorce?
What is the position of the brother with Lewy's?
My own brother had early Lewy's and would have been able to make a competent decision on who he could live with, but in your case your brother already has a guardian-brother.
Any fight in court will be expensive and any judge may simply remove guardianship from all involved and place it in the hands of the state.
Also, the estate pays for this fight in court; the brother as POA is covered for this. And he should stipulate in court that the loser pays court costs.
But if the brother who is suffering from Lewy's has a competent voice in court this may go to the "girlfriend-wife", especially if there is no divorce.
Again, much in this post makes little sense. If her motive is financial and she was long divorced I don't see how she will win. But she CAN try.
Is the guardian-brother currently receiving payment for being a caregiver? Or does he intend to do so? Is your ill brother currently in in-facility care?
More information would help, and welcome to the Forum, Kab.
Yes, looks like this is her trying to get control of his money.
The court will see the facts and they are the decider.
Meanwhile, since this brother has funds, they will pay for this battle by his guardian, and the guardian is not out any money, can ask the courts to make this woman pay if she loses.
