[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 642823, member: 18366"] I guess this is what I was referring to. Unless someone has actually paid the lawyers bills, been through the whole Guardianship court system they really can not say it can't cost that much. I guess the expense is relevant to how much money one has. If someone is a millionaire, I guess having a paid guardian and a lawyer to file all the paperwork would be a bargain. And my point here is not to argue with people but to share what I learned with what I now know (from looking it up) is a resident of the same state and therefore IS SUBJECT and material to what I am posting. Also this is considered giving legal advice. In the ID community it is quite common for parents to have POA rather than the more expensive guardianship. And yes there is another alternative which I linked for the OP or anyone else that wants to look it up. Sorry this is tough subject for me because I had to learn the PROBATE AND GUARDIANSHIP LAWS the hard way because people were being abusive to my sister (So I absolutely do know what I am talking about.) I am probably being much touchier then normal as it is a holiday and I am, of course, missing her. Again these types of issues here in Florida, it is one big Cluster eff. I am also touchy about it as well as I have reported companies, people and agencies for not doing their jobs in not only not protecting my sister but other situations with other people with disabilities I observed as well. I have been told by enough people that I do not know what I am talking about (who don't want to go to jail or have to pay the state money back) that it sets me off when people tell me I don't know what I am talking about. Anything anyone wants to know about adults with ID's, the laws, the programs, POA vs Guardianship etc. they is a placed called Google where anything someone wants to learn about these subjects can be found. That's where I spent many, many hours learning this stuff. Even State Statutes can be found via Google : ) I take most of my self-confidence from what I am saying via the Probate Judge I worked so closely with, who valued the information I shared with her and shared her own opinions on the state of services with me. Between her opinion and doing best by my sister I don't need anyone else to value my input. [/QUOTE]
