Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida
my mom is the power of attorney over my grandfather's estate and assets. his wife of three months is living in his home and my grandfather passed away last week. we had the locks changed today to his house, and called the police, but she is refusing to comply, will not leave the house and the police aren't doing anything. everybody is just sitting around the house waiting for something to happen. What should I do?

the power of attorney is no good - he is dead. the woman is his wife and she has the right to remain onthe property under a life estate and when she dies the house can go to the children of the grandfather.
