Rights of Person Holding POA?

I need legal advice. My mother is on her death bed and my sisters have power of attorney and have refused me seeing my mom. She lives with one of my sisters. Some one please help me find out how to see my mom before she dies.

The POA does not prevent you from seeing your mother. It is only used for financial and medical issues. Unfortunately, it appears that you will need an attorney experienced in Elder Care and POA issues to send a formal letter to your sister explaining this and demanding she allow you to visit your mother.

Again unfortunately, your sister will probably try to limit your visits and add whatever "requirements" she can dream up to make your situation even more difficult.

Your attorney can demand your sister's cooperation, however, I think you are in for a bumpy ride as long as your mother lives with your sister.

Good Luck!!!

This is really a sad situation.
Undoubtedly you and your sister have had problems of some sort before this happened. Is there anyway to make amends to rectify this situation?

A POA does not give your sister the right to keep you from seeing your mother - but - she does have the right to keep you from her home.

I recently helped someone in a similar situation and it worked out okay.

We visited the local police station and explained the situation. All they wanted was to be able to see their loved one who was very sick. A police officer met us at the address and politely asked if we could visit this person if the officer was present. It was arranged and everything went smooth for a 15-20 minute visit.

If time is of the essence, then you may wish to try something like this.

I hope you will be able to see your mother and also - maybe make amends with your sister.
