Hi,
Does anyone know where I can get an Irish template for general power of attorney? We have a problem where an enduring power of attorney was set up with one power of attorney rather than three powers and our father's solicitor wants to charge us the full amount to redo it ( in fairness it is possible that there was a breakdown in communication). Our Father is still corpus mentis but this is a lot of hassle and the solicitor wants to talk to him before he will do it properly. I thought if he wanted to sign a general power of attorney we could sort out this mess for him. We want to change solicitors because frankly we do not thrust him. Can our father just sign a letter, get it witnessed and ask the solicitor to hand his file over to a new solicitor or can this all be done with a new solicitor? Would appreciate any help.
Thanks
