When someone has been appointed as guardian of your person, either temporarily or permanently, you do not have the power to give consent to anything or sign your name to anything binding. It basically amounts to the same thing as you being a minor child again. I am not agreeing with what has been done, I'm simply trying to explain.
For many years I was a paralegal for an attorney who was quite often appointed as guardian of the persons and estates of incompetent folks in Texas. Most of the time these cases are done for good reason with respectable results. Doesn't sound like this couple's estate and best personal interests are being handled well at all. I wish I was still there and could look into the matter and try to get it straightened out.
Sorry, lady, on legal technicalities, you may know what you’re talking about but, this isn’t right!! Lawyers defending the actions and policies developed by other sleazy lawyers doesn’t cut it. These people were not declared non compos mentos by busy bodies whose track record at “protecting” people leaves a lot to be desired.
I don’t believe that these people need to become wards of the state, they MIGHT need a tiny amount of assitance but, from the sounds of it, the state has only made things worse and is stealing them blind!
As the saying goes, doing something just because you can doesn’t make it right.
