Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Louisiana
Succession
I work at a medical office. When a patient dies sometimes the family sends statement back stating DECEASED? Who is required to pay bills when someone dies? Should the estate not pay all bills before being divided?

Normally the medical expenses are a debt of the estate
