Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Pennsylvania
Legal bill paid out of an estate
My mother-in-law recently passed. My husband and I had to move in to care for her in her last 6 months of life. Now the estate is going to be settled, and I want to be paid for my time caring for her 24 hours a day.

Re: Legal bill paid out of an estate
Was there a contract between your mother-in-law and yourself for the care? Did a power of attorney promise payment? Courts in situations like these look for evidence that it was not a familial bond but rather a business relationship. I offer free consultations.
