Pennsylvania
Hello, I need advice to see if I need to proceed with anything.
Here is a little backround on my situation. My 58-year old Uncle - who currently lives with me (unemployed, evicited) has no life insurance policy whatsoever. He really has no intention to get one either - finanically he has nothing - I am his financial supporter (and there is no way I am taking on yet another burden because of him paying for his life insurance.) He has no surviving relatives, with the exception of myself (I am 27 years old) and my 24 year old brother. So that being said - I qualify for his next of kin.
I am wondering what I can do - if anything - and if I need to do anything to protect myself in the event of his demise. He has no property in his name - although his house was sold for sherrif sale back in 2000. He has some collectors calling for him for minimal debts, etc. But I really do not want any financial responsibility for this man at all. I do not want any collectors calling me when he dies, I don't even want to pay for this mans funeral (which I will have to) when he dies for a LIST of personal reasons. He is - in short - a manipulative leech who has done this to 3 other family members (who all have since died) and I just cannot wash my hand of him and let him be homeless.
Is there anyone that knows if I need to do something to protect my interests? What about my brother?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pennsylvania is where we resideWhat is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
