Issuance of Power Of Attorney in Divorce - CA.?

[pinaytechie]

My cousin is in the process of divorce, but I pity him because he is still young and does not know what to do and always confused or lost when talking to a lawyer. He always seek my help calling the lawyer’s office, and reading the document and explaining to him. Well anyway, my question is,,,, can he issue a power of attorney allowing me to represent him or answer for him in his divorce case? Is that possible in divorce? I know someone can issue power of attonrney to someone for real estate transactions… how about in divorce? Basically, what he wants is just to give me power to speak to his lawyer about his case especially when he is abroad. I’m just trying to help…

Yes you can get POA over him. You both need to sign and it would state for legal transactions.
