More details to this question:
If my mother is named power of attorney for her brother who is dying from cancer, can his creditors come after her for his debt by her having control over his finances and ability to pay his bills?
1 ANSWER
Just because she has the POA does not make her personally liable for the bills. She must use his money to pay his bills but if she abuses the POA and spends his money for her own benefit, then they can come after her. She needs to keep her money separate from his.
