Under the law, once a will has gone through probate and executor is appointed, should this be sufficient to access bank accounts?

I would give them the Death Certificate as well. The bank is probably just following their internal procedures. While your lawyer is not wrong, it is going to be easier to just give the bank what it wants that to try to fight them on this. If it was something more expensive or complicated, I might challenge them. In this case, I would just give it to them. Perhaps they can make a copy of the original and give it back to you.

Can I get control over my father's estate if I live in a different estate than he does?

Answered by attorney Victor L. Waid (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
Yes, probably by obtaining a conservatorship of his person and estate if he is still living; if deceased, then you will have to petition the probate court in the locality of your father's residence. Obtain their services of a probate lawyer in that geographical area for either a probate if he is deceased or a conservatorship if he is still alive.

Is there a statute of limitations for an executor who is not fulfilling his duties?

Melissa Ann Botting
Answered by attorney Melissa Ann Botting (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Melissa A. Botting
This question is a bit confusing. An executor who is not fulfilling his duties can be removed by filing a motion in the probate court handling the case detailing the reasons for the executor?s removal. The motion can be brought as long as the case has not been closed. If you are asking is there a statute that requires an executor to be removed for failure to perform his duties for some period, it works a little differently. The executor can not be removed for two years in order to give the executor time to get the estate together and figure out what to do. After that it is up to the beneficiaries to ask for removal if the executor is not working. If the question is whether a statute of limitations has passed to complain about the behavior, it depends on the specific behavior and the action you wish to take. For example, fraud actions can only be brought 2 years after the person becomes aware that they have been defrauded.
