My brother decided to take his own life on New Years Eve. We live in FL. What do I need to do? He had no will and only left a hand-written note leaving POA to my 20 year old son who works with him ( my brother had his own small tile business). I need to take care of all of this due to our Mom being elderly and being the only sibling. Is the POA legal if hand written? Can I assist my son with his decisions as he is only 20 years old? I am devisated but know that legally things need to be done to "settle"his "estate". He basically only had a business account with little in it and his home, cars , company trucks and his home. I cannot afford an attorney - what can I do? Thanks now for advise later - Deb
