<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in">The fact pattern mostly fit into the subject line. Client is advanced in years, wishes a younger relative to help her manage her financial affairs. Will create a POA here in WA, where there is signinficant real
and personal property. But will be traveling to and staying in Florida, where there is also real and personal property, for significant lengths of time during a given year.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in">Leaving aside the inherent issues of granting power to another person, my focus is on how her presence and property in different jurisdictions will complicate things. Any suggestions or comments from the Brain
Trust to forestall legal problems (as mucha as possible, anyway)?<o:p></o:p></p>
