Q: My mom passed in Louisiana, owned a suv & insurance was paid in full at the time. Can her son drive it and how long?
My mom passed 11/23. He instantly got in her suv. What rights if any does he have to drive it? What happens when its time for the insurance to renew? Shouldn't the tags be pulled? Also, she was married but they are claiming community property, I say wrong because she bought it with money she received from my sister life insurance policy (died 10/2020). Who's correct? Jefferson was not my sister's father.
A: You have a lot of questions and more information is needed---my suggestion is that you seaarch for a succession/probate lawyer in your area---set up a consult and at the consult ask your questions----at the end of the consult you can decide if you want to hire that attorney or if you need an attorney. Good luck.
