Must a POA disclose financial info to family memebers

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
Maybe - it depends on what the end result is.  If the person dies, and another person takes over as the Executor of the estate, then the executor may ask for an accounting of what the POA was used for.  It doesn't necessarily need to be disclosed unless someone asks for it.

Would like to take a name off of a deed

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
This is very easy.  It will require the preparation of a deed called a quitclaim deed.  The property will go from both parties names, into one party, and both parties will have to sign the deed.  The cost for this is approximately $500 if you have a copy of the recorded original deed.

My significant other of 10 years wants to leave me his home for $80,000 if he should pass away before me .How can we do this leagally?

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
You should see a lawyer to get a will drawn up.  He could make it so that the children get $80,000 and you get the house, or life rights to the house which ever he prefers.  The $80,000 could be a separate bequest, but you have to be careful about making you obligated to pay the children.
