How can my mother be the official executor?

David L. Leon
Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
If he made your mom the executor after the divorce, then that's fine. The last written will should control.

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

Estate Planning lawyer at Shutt Law Firm, PLLC
Yes, you can. It doesn't matter if you are out of state. However, an in-state "agent" will need to be named. The agent will forward correspondence to you. Often the attorney assisting you will be named as the in-state agent.

Would a Statutory Durable POA override a spouse?

William R. Pelger
Answered by attorney William R. Pelger
Estate Planning lawyer at Pelger Law
I think the POA overrides the prior spouse, even if the prior marriage is ruled valid. I do believe, at least in my state, PA, a married person can designate whoever he or she wants as agent in a POA notwithstanding blood or marriage. WHere blood or marriage come in is with the will, for inheritance. Make sure he has a will, so in the event the last wife would contest the estate and the prior marriage be ruled in her favor she wont get the bulk of the estate. See a local TX lawyer for more specific details regarding TX law.
