What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas
My question is this.
My step father died a few weeks ago in Texas. He left a will and it stated, among others, I was going to be awarded a sum of money. His wife had legal and medical poa. Can she alter the last wishes of my step father and change his will? Or does the poa become null and void upon death?
I am concerned his widow is going to try to alter the will and deprive us of our inheritance.
