Siblings will accuse their own sibling caregiver of undue influence, etc. to cheat the one who sacrificed all to care and 'live' in the hospital etc. for mom.

After my father's stroke, his "caregiver" isolated him from the family and used her malicious influence to alienate him from everyone who loved him, inlcuding his precious granddaughter. She took him to the indian casinos almost every day.

On the other hand, if caregivers are excluded from the category covered under probate code section 21350, what protections are there to keep unscrupulous ones from pressuring dying people to change their wills or trusts or even accept innappropriate gifts from people who are under Jim and Tatianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17664894149809354840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28187834.post-67755886570338940142006-12-16T13:12:00.000-08:002006-12-16T13:12:00.000-08:00It is somewhat disconcerting to me that caregivers...It is somewhat disconcerting to me that caregivers are automatically considered to have used undue influence if they are named in someone's will. This leaves the burden of proof on the caregiver to convince the court that they did not engage in undue influence. It seems that this might be a hard fact to prove.
