i moved into my dads house about 3 years ago to help him out--in 01/2011 he had a stroke/dementia and went into a nursing home---my brother had power of attorney----both my brother and i are to split everything 50/50--in july he did a quitclaim deed putting his name on the deed and leaving me off---dad passed away in 11/2011--he now wants me out of the house----
how can he remove his name from deed without your consent?if everything was to be divided on 50/50 basis,do you have written proof of it? i think you should consult with the lawyer.
Hi rogerhere,
If he had the power of attorney and if he had transferred the property in his name, then he will be the sole owner of the property. If your name is not mentioned on the property deed, then you won't have the rights to stay in that property. If you feel that you have been scammed/cheated, then you can contact an attorney and take his opinion in this matter.
Thanks

Roger did the POA also give your brother the power to sign for you? That's the only way in which he could have eliminated your ownership interest, assuming it was solid to begin with.
