Do I need a will or durable POA

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
Powers of attorney lose all legal effect when the person granting them dies. Wills govern property after death but have no legal effect until a court admits them to probate (proving).

Can my brother sell a property without letting me know even if I’m the one who has the power of attorney?

Apparently not, as you know what he is doing. If your mother is no longer competent she cannot contract and any agreements are voidable.

What are my rights and where do I stand at if ex in laws are claiming that the house is theirs?

I would need more information to comment more on this, but at a minimum you should be entitled to 1/2 the equity value as of the date of the divorce before the parents paid off the mortgage. However, if the house was still titled as joint tenants with rights of survivorship, you now are the sole owner of the house. You definitely are going to want an attorney to at least review all the facts and perhaps need to negotiate with his estate.
