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

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
You can make the claim. The family is going to say the services were gratuitous. There are deadlines for making a claim in an estate, so if you're going to do it, do it soon.

What POA form needs to be filled out for someone relinquishing power of attorney and giving POA to someone who lives in another state?

Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
If the person granting the Lowe is competent now, but planning for a future incompetence, you would use a durable power of attorney and a medical power of attorney and hipaa form. If he power grantor is presently incompetent, you need a judicial guardianship.

What is the probate process after a parent's death?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
Somebody needs to apply for probate. In this case, it would probably be his wife and it would be started where he died. However, you say temporarily. Was he on vacation or was it an extended stay? Did he tell you it was temporary so you wouldn't get mad? Regardless, if he really live in your state, I suppose you could open up a probate there, but eventually someone will win the battle of the probate forums. If the wife opens in the other state, she can then use that to open a probate in your state to handle his property there. You need to talk with an attorney and his wife and figure out the best way to proceed.
