Your uncle has hired a financial advisor and signed over power of attorney to them and you believe they are ripping him off. What can you do?

There isn't much you can do without proof and without your uncle's consent. Offer to accompany him to his visits with the advisor and tell your uncle that he should be informed of every action his advisor takes as his attorney-in-fact. If you think your uncle is legally incompetent and being taken advantage of then you or someone else in the family must petition the Probate court to be appointed his guardian. The guardianship would extinguish the POA.

Is it legal for an attorney to change a Power of Attorney without notifying the original attorney in fact for someone who is incapable of making changes?

No. Only the principal can change a Power of Attorney. If the principal is legally incapable then the POA cannot be changed. In order for a POA to remain in effect after a person becomes incapacitated the POA must be a Durable POA. If an attorney is tampering with the POA he/she should be reported to the State Board of Bar Overseers.
