Searching for a lawyer

We are in Taichung for a short trip to deal with the remains and financials of a family member who is a USA citizen, but was permanent resident in Taiwan. We have had a lot of great help so far and have dealt with the funeral. Now we need to close out his banking. We have been told we need a lawyer to draw up something like a power of attorney to prove next of kin. Does anyone know about this? Any English speaking lawyers in Taichung? Is there any taxes for sending money back to the US?

Thanks!

@fifieldt is our resident lawyer (if I remember right). And @Marco also has a lawyer he swears by.

They might be based in Taipei, but that’s only a short 45-min. train ride on the HSR.
