Reeves County, TX Estate Planning Law Firms & Lawyers

You need to talk to a lender agent who specializes in reverse mortgages to answer your question as to whether an outstanding judgment will affect her loan application.

Generally, if a trust is created while the trustor has capacity and is not under undue influence the trustor can make whatever plan of distribution he or she sees fit.

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.
