can creditors take a life insurance policy?
My relative passed away. He had named me a beneficiary of a life insurance policy. He died while in a nursing home. That home received his retirement checks directly. Now they sent me paperwork saying he left a debt of tens of thousands to the county and they want to know all his assets and property. They have a section where they ask about life insurance policies. I live in Idaho. The insurance policy was taken out in California 30 years ago. Can they take this money? He has no other assets or anything at all left because his brother cleaned him out several years before his death because he didn’t want to have to share his estate with my side of the family. As an aside, could I direct the county to this brother or is it too late for that? I mean, the money who took is long gone. Thanks for any advice.
