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?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
That is a complicated question. You need to speak with an experienced estate attorney to go over homestead exemptions, policy ownership, policy amount, and available allowances as a surviving spouse under state law. There is not easy answer to your question, aside from you need to speak with an attorney to address options, which may include bankruptcy. Seek out legal assistance sooner rather than later.

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

Estate Planning lawyer at Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger LLP
Not unless the power of attorney explicitly allows this. A power of attorney generally does not include the right to make gifts on behalf of the principal.

After termination of parental rights, is the child entitled to inheritance if that parent dies without a will?

Bernard H. Greenberg
Answered by attorney Bernard H. Greenberg
Estate Planning lawyer at Kokish & Goldmanis, P.C.
No. Termination of parental rights also terminates the child's right to inherit via Colorado's law of intestacy upon the death of the parent who's parental rights were terminated.
