I was with my man for 14 years he just passed away am I entitled to anything?

Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Answered by attorney Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Estate Planning lawyer at Donaldson Stewart, P.C.
If he left a will or a trust naming you as beneficiary, you would be entitled to receive from his estate as he designated (whether or not you were married). If he had no such paperwork and you were not married, then you are not entitled to receive from his estate; however, if you had jointly titled assets (e.g. a house or bank account), you may be entitled to receive his share of those assets (it depends on how the title was held). I recommend you consult with an attorney to discuss this matter in greater detail.

What do I do if my mother has passed without signing over a power of attorney?

Answered by attorney Norman Harry Green (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger LLP
If she's dead, its too late for a power of attorney. They expire at death. Consult a lawyer to file a petition for probate. (or simpler procedure if her assets are less than $150K).
