Be Careful
With The Power You Give Up!
Power of Attorney Fraud &
Abuse
By Kenneth Brown
When we think of power what do we think of? Is it the
power of a plane? A car? Or is it the power of something we give to someone
else?
If we become incapacitated due to illness or accident, have we made a provision to give
someone else the Power to take care of our affairs?
You can do this by selecting a person that we trust, either in the family or a close
friend and we give them a Power of Attorney, which can be for financial or for health
care. So if something does happen to us, they can sign checks, or make health
decisions for us.
With the economy the way it is, we must be very careful who we choose. The POA is a
very useful tool if used in the right way, if it is given to the wrong person or persons
it could cost you everything.
There seems to be a growing trend for some who have POA's, to do the wrong and illegal
thing, which hurts everyone. People have lost their savings, their homes, their
dignity.
The bottom line, think very carefully who you want to make critical decisions for you, you
can always change if you think you need to, but don't wait until it's too late.
