Can I get control over my father's estate if I live in a different estate than he does?

Eric James Smith
Answered by attorney Eric James Smith (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
Your father does not have an estate unless he is dead or has been declared incapacitated by a court. You can act as the administrator of an estate from out of state if you name an attorney as your local agent. The court may prefer a local administrator, if one is available and not disqualified to serve.

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

Vincent A. Liberti
Answered by attorney Vincent A. Liberti (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Halloran & Sage LLP
This depends entirely upon the laws of the state they live in. Many states impose liability for medical debt upon the spouse. Some states impose the liability upon children as well. So it depends upon their state's laws.

What do I do if my mother has passed without signing over a power of attorney?

Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
You are confused or have been misinformed. A Power of Attorney is only used for a living person. Once a person has died, any Power of Attorney terminates upon death. At this point, if there is an estate, you need to be named Personal Representative of the estate. That requires probate proceedings. It is a highly technical process and should not be attempted without the assistance of an attorney.
