As long as the grantor of the power of attorney (POA) has legal capacity and all statutory requirements in Arizona for execution of a POA are followed, it can be done.
When a person is in a hospital it is very important to have written evidence that at the time of execution of the POA the... View More

The homeowners' divorce does not impair your rights under the lease and is not, by itself, grounds for lease termination. So long as you pay your rent, you should be allowed to complete your lease term unless your lease contains provisions that would allow the owners to terminate early.

Generally, in landlord/tenant cases, you sue the landlord (or property owner) - not the property management company or property manager. The property manager typically is not the property owner and merely the landlord's agent who at all times is acting on behalf of the landlord. If the... View More

This depends on whether there was a last will and testament (or Trust that owned the business; or business documents that indicated what should happen) or not. If there was an estate plan that addressed the business, then it controls where it goes. If there was not, see below:

for a second month? Hotel has closed the pool, hot tub and gym and other amenities. City has closed all gyms and pools per mayor. Bill. 3/18/20. 12:50pm

If this is Arizona property, under 2 1/2 acres, then lender can foreclose if the loan is not paid, but they cannot sue you. That is the good news. The bad news is that you still have a... View More

It sounds like you paid for the property but never got a deed. Yes, the property would be part of her estate and you have a claim to receive it pursuant to contract. You should hire a probate attorney to help you pursue that claim.

AZ home sale: Defect items in the parapet stucco contractually agreed to be repaired were not properly repaired before the sale. Now, the improper repair is being discovered. Does the new homeowner have any recourse?
