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?

Estate Planning lawyer at Probate Law Center Richard J. Keyes, PC
If you are the beneficiary of the life insurance, then it does not go through probate and you would not have to use the funds to pay his debts. Please make sure that you did not sign for, or co-sign for, any of his medical treatment.

Is an un-notarized will valid?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
If the Will meets the other requirements and is witnessed by two disinterested persons, of which you can locate one to sign an appropriate affidavit, the Will may be valid. If it is not witnessed and is solely in her own handwriting, and the will is dated, signed and sets froth that it intends to dispose of her property upon her death, it may be valid as a holographic Will. You should probably speak with an attorney and have the Will reviewed.

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

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
The family is not responsible for this unless they agreed to be responsible for it. Your father's ESTATE, if he has one, would be responsible for creditor claims. His estate would consist of any assets that your father has in his name alone, without beneficiaries designated.
