How do I leave everything to my kids?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
You can leave all of your separate property and 1/2 of any community property you have now or accumulate during the marriage to whomever you chose, including your children. Simply have a will prepared stating your wishes. It will be helpful to avoid any problems down the road if the will is drafted to include specific reference to the fact that you do not want to leave anything to your spouse and the reason why.

Am I responsible for my dead husband's hospital and doctor bills?

Rudolf Jon Karvay
Answered by attorney Rudolf Jon Karvay (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Berkman, Henoch, Peterson Peddy, P.C.
The answer to your question is rather complicated. Generally, unless you are contractually obligated, a joint debtor or co-signor you are not responsible for your deceased husband's debts. If your husband died with assets (money or property), then his estate may be responsible for the debts. The executor or administrator of the estate will need to negotiate and pay your husband's debts to the extent that there are sufficient assets to pay. If your husband died with no assets, then the debts do not get paid. However, medical creditors may seek to hold you liable under the doctrine of "medical necessaries." In order to do so, a creditor must show that the services were rendered based upon your credit. In addition, the creditor must show that the amounts alleged to be owed are commensurate with your means. I suggest that you seek out the advice of an attorney for a more detailed examination of your particular circumstances.
