Q: What will I need to do to claim my fathers property in Luquillo, Puerto Rico?
I brought my father to living in New Jersey 3 years ago because of his declining health. My father never put the property under my name because he was always to ill to go back to PR. My father is now in a nursing home and we don't know what to do about the property. We don't want to lose the property. What can be done now that he is in a nursing home, not really able to make sound decisions? I never obtained a power of attorney or anything so am frustrated. I will appreciate some direction on our situation.
