Would a Statutory Durable POA override a spouse?

Answered by attorney William R. Pelger
Estate Planning lawyer at Pelger Law
I think the POA overrides the prior spouse, even if the prior marriage is ruled valid. I do believe, at least in my state, PA, a married person can designate whoever he or she wants as agent in a POA notwithstanding blood or marriage. WHere blood or marriage come in is with the will, for inheritance. Make sure he has a will, so in the event the last wife would contest the estate and the prior marriage be ruled in her favor she wont get the bulk of the estate. See a local TX lawyer for more specific details regarding TX law.

What do I do when recipient refuses land being given to them?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
The brother who does not want his interest in the property needs to sign a quit claim deed over to you (or directly to the charity) relinquishing his interest in the property. If he quit claims it to you in your capacity as Executor, then you can then deed the property to charity or to a third party.

I'd like my deceased grandparents house in my name. (They have 3 children) there is no will, I am preparing an affidavit of heirship, is there more?

Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
After the Affidavit of Heirship has been recorded by the county clerk, the three children of your deceased grandparents can each sign a Special Warranty Deed of Gift deeding their interest to you and record these with the county clerk.  It is not a DIY project.  It is also not expensive.  Hire an attorney to make sure that it gets done right.  Neither occupancy nor paying taxes gives you any ownership interest.
