Am I responsible for bills related to my father's medical care if he is deceased?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
You aren't personally responsible for your late father's debts. However, someone needs to settle his estate which includes all of his debts as well as any assets he might have had. Your POA is no longer effective. Someone needs to serve as executor of the estate, notify the creditors and pay off as many debts as possible, file the final tax reports, and distribute any remaining personal possessions.

Am I entitled to receive some of my grandparent's inheritance?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
It is hard to say. If they had a Will that included you as a beneficiary, then yes. If they had a Will that did not include you as a beneficiary, then no, unless your parent predeceased them, then maybe. If they died without Wills and your parent survived them, then no. If your parent predeceased them, then maybe.

Can an adopted son who changed his name back to his birth name be given rights to his adoptive parents property?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Christine Sabio Socrates (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Christine Sabio Socrates Attorney at Law
If this son was legally adopted, he has a legal right to his parents possessions. After death, a power of attorney is void. If he is the only heir of his parents, then he is probably entitled to their property, regardless of what he changed his name to. However, if there are items that belonged to other family members, then you may be entitled to those items if you can show that they did not belong to his mother. He most likely opened up a probate estate to transfer his parents possessions to himself. This is public record so anyone can look at this file at probate court.
