    aware but not physically able to sign new will

    The child cannot sign a will under a POA. Currently the 1984 will is the valid one. Nothing else matters. A new will now could probably be challenged on lack of capacity or undue influence since the parent cannot communicate.

    Proper Venue for Small Claims Suit

    The question is whether the Wisconsicon court has jurisdiction and the answer is probably not. I assume that you signed some type of credit agreement that had a choice of law clause. It is likely that an Iowa court will find the agreement against public policy but you never know. Either way...
