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

David L. Leon
Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
Yes, however, he has to be doing so at either the direction of the brother, or for the brother's best interest. A power holder has a fiduciary duty to the power grantor.

I was with my man for 14 years he just passed away am I entitled to anything?

David L. Leon
Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
Possibly. You can claim a common law marriage if: 1. You were both 18+ 2. You agreed to be married (this can be inferred) 3. You held yourselves out to the public as married (i.e. he introduced you as his wife) 4. You were not already married. You would then have a claim to the community property portion of his estate. This is a fairly complicated proposition. Get legal help.

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

David L. Leon
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.)
