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

Answered by attorney Charles Richard Perry (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Charles R. Perry
A power of attorney is no longer valid once the person who signed the power has died. Even if your mother had signed a power of attorney, then, it would not help you now. It's not possible to tell you what to do now, without receiving more information. You may have to probate your mother's estate, or there may be a way around probate. The question depends mostly on the size of your mother's estate. You can do some reading on the subject of probate, you can talk to a lawyer who handles probate matters, or both.

Can a will be signed electronically in Texas?

Some lawyers are conducting drive-by signings.  Others are lobbying for Texas to permit remote (video) notarizations.  Note that this is different from using an electronic signature.

A power of attorney ceases to be valid on the date of death. To manage your mother's estate, you would have to qualify as the Administrator of the estate.
