Lyric, I am so sorry to hear this news.
The attorney I work for does HCPOA and POA work.
A previous employer did them for the LGBT community.

While I know the answers to some of your questions, I am not a licensed attorney
and by law cannot give you any legal advice beyond saying
you need to speak with an attorney ASAP.

If you are not comfortable with the attorney who prepared your original documents
then by all means consult with another.

Lambda Legal maintains a list of attorneys who are sensitive to LGBT issues.

I wish you both well.

The attorney who prepared our paperwork was great, but she lives out of state. We probably do need to consult with someone in-person, here in Virginia. Thank you for the words of wisdom!

Awwww, big hugs to you, Lyric! We miss you SO much!

One of my good pals here in Richmond is an attorney, specializing in our community. I am certain she would be glad to speak with you.

Call me?

Love you bunches!
Christie (and Jess, of course!)
