Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Texas

My mother-in-law passed away in 2014. She got sick and 30 days later died so she was only able to sign a will and power of attorney leaving everything including her house to her only son.. We have lived in her house and made the mortgage payments up until about 4-5 months ago when we hit financial hardships. The bank won't give assistance without pro-bate court., can they make us do that when we have her will. We are thinking about filing bankruptcy to keep from losing the house is this possible?

Unfortunately the mortgage company can be difficult to deal with unless you probate the will. I have worked with several families who have faced this situation. You can definitely file bankruptcy to suspend the mortgage company from foreclosure. Please visit our website or give us a call. www.northtexasdebtfreedom.com
