how do you find out if you gave some one power of attorney not realizing it and where if any would it be filed

A power of attorney may be granted to anyone of age (not necessarily a lawyer) and would normally be in written form signed by the individual granting the power of attorney and may be required to be witnessed (or notorized) by a disinterested person.  you probably did not grant a power of attorney unless you signed documents without reading or understanding them.  A power of attorney may be very general (as to help an invalid pay bills) or very specific (to sell a particular car) and may be open ended or have a certain expiration date.  You may revoke a power of attorney at any time by providing the "attorney" with written notice and sending a copy to anyone who may need to know.\n\nI once bought a car from a man who had a written power of attorney from his invalid mother who had title to the car.  The family lawyer still had his power of attorney document in their office.  The vehicle registry would not accept it to transfer title to me until it was registered with the city which placed a copy on file and placed their seal on the document to show the registry.\n\nIf the matter is potentially important, consult with a lawyer to protect your rights.  Good luck.

Go to your local Law Library. Most have form books with these in them. In my state (NC) the format for a power of attorney is actually in the statutes themselves.

Call around - get a lawyer who handles this and spend $50 with them to see if you have a case.  If you do they WILL TELL YOU !

you don't...but you can contact your State Bar Association for information on any complaints or malpractice suits filed against the attorney in that state.

Your question only brings more questions to mind. How do you know there is a Will? Is it a large estate? Is an Attorney already involved? Has anyone contacted you in this regard and who?\nIf you found a Will, I would suggest you take it to an Attorney.

Usually it can be done just by faxing a copy of your signature on the contract untill the original can be mailed and then sent back. Have done this a couple of times myself. Power of attorney form can be  a scary situation. it gives them to many rights and can blow up in your face

Check with an attorney in your state.

I am not sure what you mean exactly, if you filed in court for power of attorney it is not revoked until the person revokes it. A child is always under the delegation of the parent and does  need a power of attorney unless there are special fiancial matters or something that requires it.

ASK your lawyer as he is the only one who knows!

You can but you will need to be appointed as a Power of Attorney.   Power of Attorney is a legal document whereby one person (the "Donor") gives another person or persons (the "Attorney") the power to act on his or her behalf with regard to his or her property and financial affairs. \n\nThere are two types: \n\nOrdinary Power of Attorney:  \nUsually, an Ordinary Power of Attorney is created for a set period of time in cases where the Donor is going abroad or is unable to act for some other reason and wishes someone else to have the authority to act on his or her behalf. \n\nAn Ordinary Power of Attorney will usually end either at a specified time or upon the request of the Donor at any time using a Deed of Revocation and will automatically be revoked if the Donor loses mental capacity. There is no requirement for the Ordinary Power of Attorney to be registered.\n\nA Ordinary Power of Attorney can be created when signed either by you or at your direction and in the presence of a witness. \n\n\n\nEnduring Power of Attorney:\nIn contrast, an Enduring Power of Attorney allows the Donor to appoint a legally authorised person to look after their property and financial affairs should they become incapable of doing so themselves at some point in the future. It continues after the Donor has become mentally incapable of managing his or her affairs and must be registered when the Attorney becomes aware or has reason to believe that the Donor has become or is becoming mentally incapable.\n\nEnduring Power of Attorney is a lot more complex to as considerable powers are are transferred to you i.e. property etc.  Therefore a number of safe guards have to be satisfied.\n\n\nThe link provided should be of great assistance.

If you were left with an inheritance, you would get a letter in the mail that would say that. If you know that you are supposed to get an inheritance but you didn't get any indication of it, then you should get your lawyer (if you have one) to contact whoever left the inheritance's lawyer.

request it from the company, if they won't provide it your lawyer can subpoena it for you.
