Is it legal to change an ill persons will?

Jeremiah D Raxter
Answered by attorney Jeremiah D Raxter (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Raxter Law
A person must have "capacity" in order to execute a will or other testamentary instrument. The only exception is in the case of a conservator who is supervised by the court. A power of attorney does not give a party the power to draft new wills. You may want to find the assistance of an attorney who specializes in Estate litigation. Good luck!

If my father signs something in writing for a quit claim deed will this stop my sister from recording hers?

Answered by attorney Lorenzo L. Angelino
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Lorenzo L. Angelino
This may be troublesome since you had notice of the prior deed to your sister and could result in a litigated dispute, NY is a Race-Notice state, meaning that not only does the first person to record a deed trump all other deeds, but that person also has to have no notice of any conflicting deeds. The earlier quitclaim deed to your sister is a conflicting deed.
