What happens if you don't get served custody papers in Oregon?
If you are not served with papers and you know about the pending case than you should contact a family law attorney to get you in the court and part of the custody. Its too complex to do it yourself. Retain an attorney.
Would it be a conflict of interest if my husband were to use the attorney that his ex-wife works for as a divorce attorney now?
Depends on what type of issue they are handling. If it deals with divorce, probably. If it is simply business deals or even criminal cases, no there isn't a conflict of interest, unless he is representing both parties in the same action or negotiation and they are on opposite sides.

Yes. If there is an issue where the family member/attorney would have a conflict of interest, he/she is ethically obligated to let you know about it. In most cases, this is not an issue.
Does a legal letter require a signature to be honored by another attorney?
Yes, a legal letter generally requires a signature to be considered valid and to be treated with legal significance by another attorney. A signature on a legal document confirms the authenticity of the sender and their intent to take responsibility for the contents of the letter.
When terminally ill can one take mony from there bank account?
Of course it would help to know what state you are in, however in most states: Only the party that holds the account can access it. In the event the account holder is incapacitated or terminally ill, then it would be the next of kins responsibility to appoint a "gaurdian-ad-litem". The name of this may vary in your state but the purpose is the same. You request the court for permission to handle the incapacitated persons affairs. That is assuming they do not have a living will. In that event a person has been named and a directive has been introduced. Once the individual dies their Last Will (testate) will have specific bequest as to money, property (real and personal), bonds, etc... If their is no will (intestate) then the next of kin needs to file a list of heirs with the probate court in the jurisdiction where the decedent resided. Gets complicated from here.... hope this helped

Can you give someone power of attorney without their consent?
A person (the principal) can only grant a Power of Attorney to an attorney-in-fact to handle their solely owned property. For example, if you own real property with another person, your attorney-in-fact could only sell your interest in the property. They have no authority over your co-owner's interest.
What if the person who has our power of attorney is incompetent?
If you are the principal all you need to do is revoke the Power of Attorney in writing and send it to the attorney-in-fact to inform him/her that their authority has been revoked. You should send or deliver a copy of the revocation to any entity or facility where the POA was used, especially your bank. You could record the revocation in the land records office. You could also protect yourself by placing a legal notice of the revocation in the local paper, keeping a copy of that page of the paper in your records.An attorney-in-fact who will not surrender a POA can be a problem but if they use it to access your property when they know you have revoked it they are stealing and will be subject to criminal prosecution. You would be wise to protect yourself by covering all the bases thereby making it impossible for the revoked POA to be used.

If an inmate signs over power of attorney to a nephew can the power of attorney cash a government check issued to the inmate?
Yes, but you'll need to bring the power of attorney form and proof of who you are to the bank. If the teller doesn't know what a power of attorney is then all you have to do is get the manager. They always deal with power of attorney agents, and know what the form gives you authority to do, which is act on the behalf of the executor in all financial matters, except matters specifically stated in the form that the agent can't handle.
