If I missed the hearing to remove me as Personal Representative, what can I do?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
I suggest that you determine if you can qualify for a pro bono attorney through a legal service provider in your area. In Southern Nevada that would be Legal Aid Center of Nevada. An appeal does not necessarily toll the order. You should also consider filing a Motion to Reconsider. Time is ticking. Absent a stay, you would still need to move out. Whether you should be living there is a whole other issue. Are you paying approve rent to the Estate? Did the Court authorize you to live there? Unless you are the sole beneficiary of the Estate these are real issues. You need to hire an attorney to assist you whether you find one pro bono or paid. This is not an area designed for "do it yourself" representation. This forum can merely tell you that you need a lawyer and fast.

If you are left money in a Will that spills over to a revocable living trust, are you allowed to get a copy of the trust?

Answered by attorney Robert Ingham Long (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at The Law Office of Robert I. Long
In California, following certain events (death of trustor, change of trustee, portion of trust becoming revocable, etc.) the trustee is required to send out a copy of the terms of the trust to each beneficiary of the irrevocable trust and each heir of the settlor, and to render an annual accounting, and there are court proceedings available to compel those disclosures or remove the trustee if the trustee fail s to provide the information voluntarily. It may not be quick, and it can be expensive, but the remedies are available.

What are my rights to a share that was given to me by one of my mother's heirs?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
It is impossible to say on the limited facts provided. You may have no rights, compared to the personal representative. The only one who has a legal right to do anything with the estate is the PR. There may be options, but there is no way to tell without more information. Your best bet is to visit with a probate attorney, as soon as possible.
