Yes, it would almost certainly have an impact. Your mother really should see an estate planning attorney to determine how best to proceed.

Does the family inure the debt the father made without their knowledge once he dies?

S Christopher Hunter
Answered by attorney S Christopher Hunter (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Hunter Law Offices, PLLC
The general rule is that unless someone else signed for the debt they are not responsible for it. Therefore, if neither his wife or his children agreed to pay the debt or cosigned for it they are not obligated to repay it. However, the people he owed money to will be allowed to go after his probate estate. Depending upon how the insurance benefits were set up they may be able to go after it if your father did not name a beneficiary on those benefits.

If my father planned for separation, does this factor into her claim?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
No. Texas law does not recognize a separation. The spouse would be entitled to 50% of the community estate. There may be an issue as to what is considered community property, and what is separate property, however.
