An attorney made out a power of attorney for my mother ten years ago. It was signed and notarized by the attorney. A hospital told us it is not valid with only his signature. What should we do?

You need to research the requirements for an effective POA in your state. Perhaps it needed a witness. You should check at your town offices to see if there is a Council for Elder Affairs that can advise you. Otherwise you need to consult with an attorney who can review the POA document and determine if it is effective under your state law.
You should try to contact the attorney who drafted the document.

If my mother's attorney prepared her will signed the will notarized the will and made himself co-executor is this legal?
Only if it was done at her request, and has her signature on it, as well. If she did not sign it after he put all the info in it, acknowledging him as co-executor, etc., then I don't think it is legal. And if he did it on his own, she needs to revoke the will in writing (her own hand writing - not typed), date and sign it in front of a notary. Then she needs to get another attorney.

You have the legal right to see your mother. See a family law attorney. The first consultation visit is usually free. If your mother is in a hospital speak to the doctor, hospital administrator or one of the social workers at the hospital. They may be able to get you access to your mother.

Only through the granting of guardianship. This can be done through a notarized letter of intent and a power of attorney. But, the father of the child can challenge this and request a change of custody.

ABSOLUTELY! DO NOT DO IT! As tempting as it may seem it is against the law and odds are you WILL be caught. Most states require the signature to be notarized so that would ONLY be possible if the notary was willing to risk charges as well and notarize the fraudulent signature

Can a notary in fl notarize for a nephew?
It is not prohibited by law. Florida law specifies that a notary may not notarize the signature of their parents, spouse, or children. The law is silent on siblings. However, it is probably not advised, and if you choose to notarize a sibling's signature, particularly if they have the same last name as you, you might want to add a statement to the certificate such as: "The person whose signature is being notarized is not my spouse, mother, father, son, or daughter, whose signatures I would be prohibited from notarizing per F.S. 117.107(11)". This will clarify that the signature you are notarizing is NOT that of your parent, child, or spouse.
