    Question about Durable Power of Attorney

    The reason I want to make a POA especially for my husband is because he is not savvy with the internet, has walking problems. For instance, I went into the bank to open an account but in order for me to do so as a joint owner (me and my husband) they said he'd have to be there. I trust our...

    Question about Durable Power of Attorney

    OK, I thiink I understand but I know there will be no conflict. But my husband can't walk well, he is mentally sound but does not understand the computer well (he's over 75, not an excuse but still that's the way it is) and if I am somehow incapacitated (car accident, etc.) then I want someone...

    Question about Durable Power of Attorney

    I am making out a Durable Power of Attorney form and the form says something like I am appointing ________ as my attorney-in-fact. The question is: can I appoint two attorneys-in-fact on the one form, or do I have to change the wording from attorney-in-fact to attorneys-in-fact? Thank you. Or...

    Car in two names

    OK, I don't have the title in front of me now, I have to find it, but I'm wondering about a power of attorney in Florida, if that would let me sell the car. I'll get the title asap and let you know. I guess I can call Florida motor vehicles division.

    If a condo building or apartment is declared uninhabitable

    OK, tomorrow (Monday) I hope to remember to call insurance agent. I do have some money in the bank, but still was wondering when I read news article about some local residents ordered to leave their apartments. Maybe they were renters, I don't know, but the question arose in my mind would I...

    If a condo building or apartment is declared uninhabitable

    I'm the owner. I'll check with the office asap just so I know. Some condos around here have been determined to be unsafe and residents must get out. News has it they have nowhere to go. This is reminding me to speak to insurance agent. So I was wondering if we have to get out do we still have to...

    If a condo building or apartment is declared uninhabitable

    If the county declares a building or condo uninhabitable because of deterioration and the residents are told to vacate, will they still have to pay maintenance if they cannot live there by law until it's fixed?

    Pour-over will?

    So, in other words, if I set up a revocable trust and more is added, the pour over will goes along with that? So first I make a revocable trust, right(?) and if I add assets to that, a pour over will goes along with that?.

    Pour-over will?

    DPA for my husband and myself - need help figuring it out

    It wasn't just a "couple" of thousand, like 2 or 3. If that were the case I'd probably have no problem with it. So guardianship can be nominated in a DPA but must be confirmed by a court, is that right?

    DPA for my husband and myself - need help figuring it out

    I consulted with a lawyer recently and the cost for writing up the estate papers is astronomical from him. l'm sure he's good, but it will seriously impact whatever money we have now.

    DPA for my husband and myself - need help figuring it out

    I am looking over forms for Durable Power of Attorney, and come across this explanation but do not understand it. So maybe some kind person can explain? It says something about agent & guardianship. It says (I paraphrase) that the court will probably appoint the person nominated unless judge...

    ATM fraud -- need info re police investigation

    Our bank account was hacked with an ATM. Two ATMs and the thief (? or thieves) got $1200. The first response from the bank was that they determined it was not fraud since whoever took it knew the pin. My husband and I went in to the bank and gave us little to no information about it, claimed the...

    About Revocable Living Trust

    Yeah, well at this point I'm so confused I guess I finally HAVE to see a lawyer. I was hoping I could figure things out by myself, write a nice little will and help my beneficiary to avoid probate, but obviously (sigh and sob) I'm going to have to consult with a lawyer and spend some hard-earned...
