Power of Attorney daughter person is suing me

Brittany Villamil

Hi. 

My rental house caught on fire in Houston. The tenants lost power and so they lit the fireplace. Fire Marshall said the fireplace got so hot for so long that it caused a fire? Anyway. The tenant was older and her daughter is her poa. She had renters insurance. But the daughter is suing me for liability? But no one was hurt and I don’t know that any of her items were lost. The fire went up into the attic. She’s upset that I’m not paying for her mom to be in another house. I don’t have any other property not to mention isn’t that renters insurance is for?

@Brittany Villamil my advice is have your insurance company handle everything and you only talk to them.
