She Cared for Both Her Parents. Now the State Is Forcing Her to Sell the House.

A real probate case Don Mowery is working right now. A woman cared for her mother and father in their home for years. Her father passed. Her mother developed dementia and needed assisted living she couldn't afford, so the state of California covered it. Now the state wants roughly $200,000 back through probate court, and she's being forced to sell the home she expected to inherit. She's on Social Security. After the payoff she won't have enough to buy, and she doesn't have enough income to comfortably rent. She asked the court to let her stay until she passes. They denied it. The lesson Don keeps coming back to: people avoid spending money on an elder law attorney up front, and it costs them the house on the back end. Don't stick your head in the sand.
