How do I revoke power of attorney?

I need a form that will revoke my mother’s financial and medical power of attorney for my father. My father has Alzheimer’s, and my mom is his power of attorney. I was secondary. My mom’s health is declining, and I need to be able to take care of my dad if she is in the hospital.

Is a US power of attorney effective abroad?

Hi! I have questions about Power of Attorney. My mom is bedridden and wishes to grant POA to myself and by brother. I’m a bit confused by the word Financial being included in the title. She is looking to designate us as her agents in everything as she is unable to physically go anywhere. We will need to get her ID card, US passport, and also work with the Colombian consulate to establish her dual US/Colombian citizenship. Is this the correct form for all of that? Should there be more?

Does the heir in my will have to be a family member?

I am writing a very simple will in Michigan. I chose not to use the Statutory version because I want to name a single heir who is not a child or close relative. I have no children. I am married but if we die in an accident together, or he proceeds me in death, we only want one person to inherit all the residue of the estate. We also want this person to be our personal representative. Is this allowed?

[CA] Can my sister and I file a disclaimer of interest on my parents’ inheritance to change the designated beneficiary?

My sister and I would like me to inherit my parents’ house, and she will inherit any liquid assets they have. My parents do not want to change their will. If my sister files a disclaimer of interest for the house and I file one for the liquid assets, will the house pass solely to me and the liquid assets solely to my sister?

[GA] Does a spouse need to sign a transfer on death deed?

I just need to know if spouses of transferees have to sign the TODD in Georgia. My father is the sole owner with no spouse. The TODD says the beneficiary spouse should also sign the document. Is that correct?
