What is the name of your state? SC
My Grandmother made a will in 1982 when she was in very sound mind that left a home that she owned to me. However, she re-married and fell ill and developed alztimers. Her husband became power of attorney over her estate and transfered the property in his name. The deed states that I jeanette l. by power of Joseph l. hereby give all rights of property to Joseph l. , Which can not be contested by me or my heirs. He basically signed the property over to himself using his power of attorney rights. However, the will was not changed. I would like to know can this be contested, because even though he had power of attorney, she was not in sound mind when the decision was made. Any info is greatly appreciated. thanks
