[WSBAPT] Disclaimer? Other options?

[John Creahan]

The sisters could assign their interest in the proceeds to him. I would consider an assignment agreement signed by each sister that recited CIR facts and that included a limited power of attorney that authorizes the survivor to sign any documents necessary to complete the transfer.
Hope this helps,
John

TEDRA - If it was a committed intimate relationship, there is an argument that surviving partner is entitled to estate, or at least some of it. Great grounds to put together an agreement they can all sign off on to ensure transfer to partner.

Alright here is a situation that is new to me.  Client shares ownership of home with girlfriend who dies.  No will.  Girlfriend is survived only by sisters who are willing to release her interest in the home to him.  Home is foreclosed and yields a surplus of less than $100K.  Normally I would do a motion to get the surplus, but my client can only get 50%.  How do I get him the other 50%?
