Q. can I file a small estate affidavit on line

August 28, 2017

A: If the County you are filing in has e-filing, you should be able to.

Q. If my grandma signed an arbitration agreement with her nursing home but didn't understand it due to dementia, could that

August 28, 2017

A: It depends on the details. If the date of the agreement was on or after 11/28/16 and the nursing home participates in Medicaid then CMS prevents them from using arbitration agreements. If the details don't fit into that window, then it would depend on the facts surrounding execution of the agreement.

Q. mother passed away and had a will leaving home to me and my wife,but we aren't on the deed, what happens

August 4, 2017
