Am I responsible for paying these medical bills after he passes and can anybody take the life insurance from me for his bills that are owed?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
That is a complicated question. You need to speak with an experienced estate attorney to go over homestead exemptions, policy ownership, policy amount, and available allowances as a surviving spouse under state law. There is not easy answer to your question, aside from you need to speak with an attorney to address options, which may include bankruptcy. Seek out legal assistance sooner rather than later.

Can my husband put his name on the deed of his brother's condo if he has a POA over his assets?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
Maybe, it depends upon what the power of attorney authorizes and what it does not. He may be violating a fiduciary duty to his brother and be opening himself up to liability. In Nevada it is a mandatory double damage on top of what is taken. If the condominium would pass to another, ie under the brother's Will or intestate law he would be setting himself up for liability under Nevada law. You do not state what state's law the power of attorney was given, so you need to check that state in addition to South Carolina. Thus you may need to consult attorneys in both of those states.

My dead sister has an adopted daughter that is unknown by the family. How do we sell our mom's house with out one of my sister's heirs?

Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
Your probate attorney can ask the court to permit you to hire a PI or serve by publication.  You may have to pay the proceeds due the adopted-out child into the court registry.
