You can relinquish your roll as POA. You need to speak to an attorney about taking the proper steps.

Can a power of attorney be revoked?

Can a power of attorney be revoked in the case where I appointed my brother as my power of attorney, but he has abused his authority by making financial decisions that are against my best interests, and I no longer trust him to act in my best interests? I granted him power of attorney due to a temporary disability, but I have since recovered and would like to regain control over my financial affairs.

Yes, a power of attorney can typically be revoked, provided you are mentally competent. Since you mentioned that you have recovered from the disability and no longer trust your brother to act in your best interests, you should be able to revoke the power of attorney and regain control over your financial affairs. You or an attorney can draft a Revocation of Power of Attorney, provide to your brother, banks and other entities to inform them of the revocation.

I certainly could have a detailed conversation, for free, and see how I can assist. I have more than 30 years experience as a lawyer in New Jersey, and I also am a trained mediator. If you want to contact me, we can schedule a mutually convenient time for a review of the circumstances.

Revoking power attorney

Answered Feb 18, 2022

Typically anything written which indicates you are revoking it should be sufficient. It should be delivered to your agent. I would also deliver it to any banks or other places where your agent may use the POA.
