What is my Sister's Entitlement if she is not named in her husbands will?

David Goldman
Answered by attorney David Goldman
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of David M. Goldman PLLC
This is a complicated issue, generally a spouse is entitled to the jointly held assets and a life estate in the home. Certain other government benefits depending on the length of the marriage and have have some rights created by contact. In addition, if elected timely, the spouse may claim an elective share instead of the probate assets. In Florida, this is 30% of the elective estate, which again is different than the assets subject to probate. Your Sister should contact a Florida Estate Planning Lawyer to review the assets, options, and help guide her to make the decision that makes the most sense for her.

Can someone with the power of attorney change someone else’s will after the will’s creator and beneficiary have died?

Loraine M. DiSalvo
Answered by attorney Loraine M. DiSalvo
Estate Planning lawyer at Morgan & DiSalvo, P.C.
Not legally. First of all, a power of attorney does not grant the agent the power to change the principal's Will (the principal is the person who granted the power of attorney, and the agent is the person to whom the power of attoney was granted). Second of all, a power of attorney dies with the principal, and is no longer valid after the principal dies.
