Family law/real estate problems
Sorry in advance if this sounds confusing...and it is, because I haven’t been able to find a lawyer to help me with this case.
I was signed power of attorney and beneficiary deed over my great grandmother and her property. Her son (my grandfather), who is a very unethical man, has been trying to get power of attorney over my great grandmother for awhile and my grandmother never wanted him to be. Well, a year later, he convinced her to sign power of attorney and because she moved in with him after Doctor said she needed 24/7 care after getting the shingles.
I was working full time so that's why she moved in with her retired son and daughter in law who is a RN. Shortly after moving in with my grandfather the house went into foreclosure to my surprise because to my surprise, she had a reverse mortgage on the property. After a year long battle I found a bank who refinanced out of the reverse mortgage with a conventional loan and at the time I thought I purchased the property from my grandmother but only to later find out my name is just on the mortgage and the beneficiary deed, not the title. Before I found out my grandfather was power of attorney I asked my great grandmother to sign a quit claim deed. This was so I could refinance the house and put my name on the title and to recover the $25K in credit card I've consumed trying to do the BRRR method and am now dealing with my great grandfather who is abusing his conservatorhsip over my grandmother to try to take the house and say my "tenancy at will" is terminated when I've paid a mortgage on the house for over 2 years. He is pissed off that his mom is giving a house to her great grandson because it also states that in her Will.
Has anyone dealt with abuse of power/family law issues before and could refer me to a lawyer in CO? Really any suggestions or help is appreciated, thank you.
