Can my husband put his name on the deed of his brother's condo if he has a POA over his assets?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
This is probably not something he should do, unless there are lots of other facts. If your husband was the only heir of his brother, it would make it a little easier to say yes. Same thing if the brother's Will says everything goes to your husband. If a court approved it. More information is needed.

Can I sue my father's girlfriend and my uncle for dividing my father's belongings without my knowledge?

Edwin George Fee
Answered by attorney Edwin George Fee (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Whiteford, Taylor & Preston L.L.P.
If your father was not married and did not have a will, then you as his only child would be entitled to receive his belongings. Therefore, you may have a cause of action against the girlfriend and your uncle.

Can I have financial claim on someone whom I took care and recently died?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
You may file a creditor's claim in his estate. The estate can then either accept or reject the claim. If rejected, you would need to initiate litigation to have your claim reviewed or file in the probate court for a determination if that is an available option.
