Honor those who passed away from Alzheimer's

I want to tell my mother's story about the 12 years she suffered with Alzheimer's. I am in a legal battle with family who all turned their backs on my mother when she needed them the most, all they care about is the inheritance. My mother and I made an verbal agreement 13 years ago that if I moved in to care for her till death that I would get her home . My mother also made it clear to both POAs/ trustees that those were her wishes . The agreement wasn't written only verbally spoken . The trustee is now wanting to break that agreement . I fulfilled my part of the agreement . I need legal representation. Any suggestions???

    I don't have a great deal to offer here. I do think you need legal advice from your own attorney that has an experience with trusts.

    You should absolutely speak with an attorney about this. Also something to think about — when you and your mom discussed setting up the house situation, did you tell anyone about that arrangement at the time (besides the POAs/trustees)? It could be used as evidence that an agreement existed.
