Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas
I am an American citizen living in Texas and originally from South Korea. My deceased father has land in Korea where my brothers and sister are attempting to claim it. They need for me to sign documents in order for us to go ahead with the claim. Unfortunately, I am unable to go there and personally sign the papers needed for this to happen. I'm not interesting in keeping any part of the land. To expedite the process, they want power of attorney to sign for the land in my place. How can I be assured it will only be used for the conveyance of my portion of the property to them and for no other purposes? Any idea of how much this would cost me to do here in America?
1 Answer from Attorneys
You can limit a power of attorney to just doing certain transactions. A law office can prepare one for you for a few hundred dollars. You would first need to get the specifics of what your family wishes to accomplish, then draft the power of attorney accordingly. In lieu of that, you can just have them email your documents, sign them here, and mail the originals back to them--no power of attorney needed.
