In Florida it is legal for a collection agency to call daughter re medical bills incurred by mother prior to her death two years ago?
IF the daughter signed some type of contract or agreement stating she was responsible for the mother's bills, perhaps. If the daughter was named Executrix of the mother's will, yes it would be appropriate. If she was not, she should tell the lender she has no obligation to pay the debts of the mother's estate and to contact the Executor of her mother's will (or the Probate Court if she died intestate).
