Am I responsible for the bills that belonged to my deceased mother?

Answered by attorney Darin Christensen (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Bullivant Houser Bailey PC
Her children are not directly responsible for your mother's debts. To the extent that you received assets as a result of her passing, creditors might be able to force you to pay. Even though you have no direct liability, in some cases the creditors will try to convince you to pay; don't without consulting first with a probate lawyer.

How can we see the will?

Estate Planning lawyer at Paul A. Nidich Attorney at Law
It is a crime to fail to file a will for probate. I couldn't guess what any particular attorney would charge. You should hire an attorney in the county where the mother resided at the time of her death.

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

Answered by attorney Christine James

Power of attorney is never valid after someone dies. If she left an estate, it will likely have to be probated. See a probate attorney to discuss the details. Most will give a free consultation.
