I need to get power of attorney at a bank. My mother recently died. My father's name is on the account but he is unable to make financial decisions.
Either your dad would have to sign a power of attorney and have it notarized, or you'd have to go to court and have him declared incompetent. If he's competent but just unable to make financial decidions, go to the bank with him, they can help you with the paperwork needed to conduct financial transactions on his behalf.
Take your father to the bank with you and have him sign something there. Also check with an attorney for other stuff besides the banking.
