A Limited Liability Company does have the legal authority to appoint an individual as “Attorney in Fact” using a Power of Attorney document.
But there are two organizational specifics that must be reviewed prior to making such a determination for the LLC.
Generally, there is no legal requirement that all signatures must appear on the same document, but that is assuming some key points.
To answer this question properly, the specifics of how a couple’s property is titled and the exact content of the language of the Last Will and Testament is crucial.
How specifically-named assets of a Last Will and Testament are treated if they are sold prior to the death of the Maker vs. the remainder of the assets of that same estate depends upon the exact language contained within the Will document.
A Last Will & Testament does not need to list specific assets correctly to be valid, nor does the age of the Will have much to do with its authenticity or validity.
No lawyer will help you complete pro se legal forms for free during an initial consultation. That’s not the purpose of a consult.
A Power of Attorney document is valid until it is revoked.
When two such documents are executed, the issue becomes whether or not the second document was intended to revoke and take precedence over the first one.
A complete Living Will indeed does contain a number of different documents: an Advanced Healthcare Directive document, Durable Property Power of Attorney documents, a HIPAA Medical Records Release Authorization form, the Notice of Final Disposition document, etc.
Sometimes these documents are provided separately, sometimes they are folded into one long document.
A review of the LLC Operating Agreement would be required. Absent language specifically addressing the issue in the Operating Agreement, the death of a sole member usually results in the dissolution of the LLC.
The need send a Last Will and Testament through the Probate Court process depends upon the type of assets gifted within the document, and the “personalities” of the named beneficiaries.
