I have been deceived and betrayed by lawyers before. It is of critical importance that counsel be chosen on basis of their integrity. I don't know of any lawyers with integrity today, only ex-lawyers, and they're unavailable. I am therefore seeking counsel from people that have had counsel for decades and also have personal interest in helping my friend. Because that is a vanishingly small pool of people in my network, I am casting about for counsel widely, and will have to assess their potential accordingly. In a few hours will be consulting with patient advocacy groups and private attorneys.

I'm not going to commit any crimes and endanger my friend. I cannot help her from jail, and my purpose is to enable her to live her life as she chooses. She is not non compos mentus, and has the right to assign medical PoA as she wishes, so I am seeking counsel to do that, to show up with a notary to the facility holding her in captivity and re-assign medical PoA to me, because I will do everything in my power to enable her to live where she wants, get the care she wants, and live and die as she prefers.

I am not going to try to force a traitorous lawyer to act with integrity. There's no time to go through such process, and it's fruitless anyway because there are an infinite variety of ways that counsel can betray clients. Every day the cancer grows and worsens her condition.
