What do I do if my mother has passed without signing over a power of attorney?

Answered by attorney Christine Sabio Socrates (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Christine Sabio Socrates Attorney at Law
Even if your mother had signed a power of attorney before she died, it became invalid the moment she passed away. A power of attorney ends at death. At this point, you would need to be appointed executor (if she had a will) or administrator (if she did not have a will) in order to take care of her estate.

Now that she is deceased, the power of attorney is no longer effective. You need to open a probate estate for her and ask to be appointed the personal representative.

Must I list my illegitimate child in my will?

You may draft your last will & testament as you please, but it is advisable that you list all of your children in your will so that their identities are known and to prevent others from coming forward and claiming to be a rightful heir upon your death. You may gift as much or as little of your assets to your children as you please, but it is probably a good idea to include all of their names for identification purposes.
