How can I be held responsible for my sick son's debt?
Full Question:
I am Power of Attorney for my son who was ill but is now better. He has an outstanding debt from a home equity loan. I received a judgement from the debt collector that I am named as a defendant in the paying of this bill. How can that be possible. I have signed nothing of his. I was just handling his affairs while he was sick.

Answer:
It depends on whether you signed anything personally. Otherwise, naming you could be as POA for the Son. But you need to seek counsel to resolve.
