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

Bernard H. Greenberg
Answered by attorney Bernard H. Greenberg
Estate Planning lawyer at Kokish & Goldmanis, P.C.
Since a Power of Attorney is only valid while she is alive, there is nothing you can do now to be placed on her Power of Attorney. That document has no validity upon her death.

Am I responsible for paying these medical bills after he passes and can anybody take the life insurance from me for his bills that are owed?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
Hello, The life insurance is not subject to creditor claims. The creditors can make claims against the estate, if there is one. It sounds like there will not be one, in your case.

Am I responsible for the bills that belonged to my deceased mother?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
If you signed as a responsible person on her accounts then you could be. If you received assets from her you could be responsible up to the value of the assets that you recently received. If the answer to both of those questions is "no," the you cannot be held responsible. If you answered "yes" to either or both, you should seek legal counsel.
