If I have power of attorney for my mother who is now incapacitated, can I transfer property into my own name using a quit claim deed?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
If you are the only heir, I suppose. However, be careful because if mom is on Medicaid, it may come after the property even if you have the power. Also, if you transfer the property now, I don't think you will get the stepped up basis for income tax purposes that you would get when transferred upon death. if there are other heirs, you are looking at a big breach of fiduciary duty lawsuit. Finally, the cost of probate in Idaho is minimal and is not a reason to try and avoid it.

Do I have to return abandoned personal property if requested by an estate?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
If the judge orders you to do so, you will need to do so. If the property is valuable to you or if you want to make sure you have the best chance to defeat the petition, you should strongly consider hiring an attorney.

How can a person with POA release his father’s funds from the bank to pay for his father’s needs?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Victor L. Waid (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
Your father can write a check to himself and deposit into a new bank account closer to himself, or make the withdrawal in the form of cash from an ATM, or go to the local branch of his bank and have the account transferred there or put his son on as a joint signer of the account.
