Obtaining POA for Disabled Child?

I have a disabled child that will be 18 soon. He has TBI (traumatic brain injury) and his condition is getting worse as he gets older. He is now 16 years old and all of sudden family members that have not been around are now willing to be helpful with my son and want to be his best buddy. I want to know how or if I can become power of attorney or executor of my son's funds to protect him from the vultures that have started to surround my son for the money he will receive when he becomes 18? I did not mention that his condition is from an accident that happened when he was 2.

You must immediately consult with an attorney who is experienced in developing a guardianship for you over your son's financial and medical status. I believe a POA is not appropriate in your situation as you state your son's medical condition is becoming worse as he gets older. The guardianship case will be addressed in court to set medical, legal and financial responsibilities for you as your son's legal guardian.

Please do not wait to start this process. Good Luck to your son & you!
