    Can Someone Contest a Will if They Are Not in it?

    Who Has Power of Attorney After Death if There is No Will?

    A power of attorney does not continue after death. When the donor dies, the authority granted to the attorney ends immediately. There is no grace period, and the attorney stops acting from the point of the donor’s death.
