Question

My mom received money after her parents past away. She wants to buy a car and has asked if I can have my name on title because she owes irs money. My question is can by me putting my name on car title that cost 26,000 (paid with cash/check ) put my husband and I in a different tax bracket causing us to pay at the end of year or not get as much back we made over 80 k this year. I just don't want me adding my name to affect my family at the end of year.

Answer

To answer the question you asked, no, putting the car in your name will not put you in a higher tax bracket. However, some of the questions you didn't ask: will your insurance liability increase if your mother drives a car that is registered in your name. Will IRS be able to identify that you are holding title as nominee for another party and seize the car. If your mother made payment arrangements with IRS, maybe this wouldn't be an issue. How much does she owe IRS and why can't she pay it. How much time is left on the statute of limitations on collection?

Question

I have to pay spousal support to my ex wife for 3 and a half years. I was ordered to pay $709. I am now on disability and making less money. She refuses to work and says she is "going to school" and is living with her boyfriend, but claims she is only there 2-3 times a week. I have hired a private investigator and he has pictures of her at the boyfriend's house all the time. Will this lower my spousal support if she is living with her boyfriend? Also, I am in a relationship and we have a 2 year old daughter. My fiance would like to file for child support. Will this help in lowering the spousal support that I have to pay as well?

Answer

You may have a persuasive set of facts to justify a significant reduction or termination of spousal support if your ex is in a romantic relationship and living with her partner. Your ex also has the responsibility to become as gainfully employed as possible. If she's refusing to work and has the ability to work, the court could impute income to her. Please meet with an experienced family law attorney to explore your legal options.

Question

My husband and his brother became executors of their mother's estate when she died. My husband's brother died and now my husband is sole executor. His late brother's wife has recently gotten engaged to be married. Is she still entitled to her late husband's inheritance?

Answer

This depends upon the deceased brother's estate plan. If he left no will, the interest in his mother's estate is his separate property and would be distributed under the law of intestacy.

Assuming that all of the mother's debts were paid and they had no children, then the wife would get the entire interest. If they had children the children would share that with their mother.

Question

Is a printed form of Durable Power of Attorney that is notarized, just as legal as one that is drawn up by an attorney? What are the pros and cons?

Answer

A Durable Power of Attorney doesn't have to be written by a lawyer, though it's a REALLY good idea, but it does has to comply with Florida's very strict laws regarding how Powers of Attorney must be written. Many of the forms people download or purchase at the store don't comply.

Answer

Yes it is still valid, assuming it is properly done.

Question

I got pregnant at a young age I had one and then got pregnant with my second and I was trying to finish high school so I asked my family to help and since 2004 I've tried to get her back and my aunt won't let me what do I do

Answer

Depending upon what documents were signed, you may have to file for an Order of Custody, like a divorced parent. You need to consult directly with a family or probate attorney in your area. Allow them to find out all the relevant facts, so they can advise you as to the facts of your particular situation.

Good luck
