Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Nevada

Debts upon death

If I leave a will or living trust giving a son power of attorney, will that make him liable for my outstanding debts (credit cards, etc.)upon my death? I am a widower and live alone. What happens to those debts if I don't leave a will?

Re: Debts upon death

Your estate will be responsible for any debts subject to the amount of the value of your estate. Your son's power of attorney expires on your death.

If you have any further questions, please email.
