My sister made false accusations against her siblings over my mom’s estate should I write the judge and expose her?

Yes, send a letter to the Judge; but, be ready to back up what you say in court. Hopefully, the Judge will send you all to mediation.

If you do not have a power of attorney, who is the person that will make your decisions for you?

Jonathan W. Barlow
Answered by attorney Jonathan W. Barlow
Estate Planning lawyer at Clear Counsel Law Group
In Nevada, if you are not able to make decisions for yourself and you are still alive, and if you have not signed any valid power of attorney document, it will be necessary for someone to obtain guardianship of you in order to make decisions for you. Guardianship is a court-supervised process of appointing the guardian and overseeing the guardian's care and control of you and your property. The Nevada statutes state that any qualified person that the court finds suitable may serve as guardian. In considering who is most suitable, the court will review the relationship of the proposed guardian and may give preference to those more closely related, though the court is not required to appoint the closest next-of-kin as the guardian. The need for guardianship can typically be avoided by signing valid power of attorney documents for general matters and for health care decisions. You can take the decision of who will make the decisions out of the hands of the court by designating your own agents under a power of attorney. If guardianship does become necessary, you can use a power of attorney to nominate someone to serve as your guardian so that the court is aware of your wishes. Rather than leave the decision of who will make your decisions for you to the State of Nevada, meet with an experienced estate planning lawyer to talk about your wishes and make sure your wishes are known.
