How legal is a power of attorney signed after diagnosis of Alzheimer's?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
A power of attorney can be signed during any period of lucidity. If a person has Alzheimer's, she may have good days (when she can sign legal docs) and bad days (where she would lack competency to sign.)

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

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
Maybe, it depends upon what the power of attorney authorizes and what it does not. He may be violating a fiduciary duty to his brother and be opening himself up to liability. In Nevada it is a mandatory double damage on top of what is taken. If the condominium would pass to another, ie under the brother's Will or intestate law he would be setting himself up for liability under Nevada law. You do not state what state's law the power of attorney was given, so you need to check that state in addition to South Carolina. Thus you may need to consult attorneys in both of those states.

Do I have to leave each child something when I do my estate planning?

Estate Planning lawyer at Charles R. Perry
Nothing requires you to leave anything to any of your children in your will. You need to make your will absolutely crystal clear, however, that you do not intend to leave them anything. You would be wise to consult with an estate-planning lawyer as to how this can best be done.
