Lien on the title of my house from 2009 on a paid bill from Backenridge Hospital. Third party agency is now dissolved. How do I remove the lien?

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
Although the third party is now dissolved, the debt was not owed to that party but to Brackenridge.  If you have or can get evidence that Victim's Services paid all the bills, show that to Brackenridge and ask them to remove the lien.

If you are asking if you can be appointed Personal Representative (the P.R. is what Maryland calls the executor), the rules for and out-of-state and in-state P.R.'s are the same, except that you must have a resident agent appointed - someone in Maryland to accept legal service, etc.

Which is better to do, a living trust or a last will?

Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
Living trusts can be expensive and time consuming to create and are usually reserved for larger estate ($1 million or more). Wills are much easier to create and can be changed at any time. A simple will would allow you to leave the home to her. Be aware that because you aren't married, there may be tax consequences to consider with either choice. You both should also have living wills, power of attorney for health care, and power of attorney for financial matters that permit the other person to act on your behalf in emergency situations.
