Abuse of Power of Attorney

Glatstein & O'Brien LLP — Denver, Colorado

Because a power of attorney grants so much authority and control over one individual to another — the potential for abuse is undeniable both in theory, and in fact. The truth is that power of attorney abuse not only happens, it happens frequently and even more unfortunately — is too often undiscovered by others until it is too late.

If you have concerns about a conservator's or guardian's actions, or have been accused of abusing the authority granted to you by a power of attorney — call or contact the Denver law offices of Glatstein & O'Brien LLP and talk to a lawyer today.
