Do I have to pay for my late mother's medical bills if I am the executor of her estate?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
If your mother left behind any assets (bank accounts, insurance policy proceeds, etc.), those monies are to be used to pay her debts. If she did not, then the estate is insolvent and will be unable to pay her creditors. It's unclear from your question whether or not your mother left behind a last will & testament, but it's a good idea for you to consult with a local attorney familiar with estate planning for more guidance.

How to cash a Estate check

Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
Contact a probate lawyer who practices in the county in which your grandmother lived and died.  Since the check is to the estate, not to you, you must open a formal probate (proving) of her estate by filing an Application for Determination of Heirship and Issuance of Letters of Administration or, depending on the amount in her estate, a Small Estate Affidavit.
