After probate is completed, does the executor have to open up an estate account?

Sabina Tomshinsky
Answered by attorney Sabina Tomshinsky
Estate Planning lawyer at Home Town Law, P.A.
Generally, an estate account is opened by a personal representative once probate is commenced. When probate is completed, the case is closed and all estate account(s) should be closed. You should consult with a probate attorney in your area for further advice specific to your case.

Once a will has been made, can the other spouse change it?

Answered by attorney Kristen A Carron (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Kristen Carron, LLC
Once someone dies, their will cannot be changed. If in fact your dad's house was left to you and your siblings in his will, the will should have been probated and the property should have passed through probate and you and your siblings should have been given your share. However, if the house was owned by your parents as Tenants by the Entirety, then the house would have passed to her (and not to you and your siblings) upon your dad's death regardless of what his will said. If it did pass to your mom in that way, then she can leave it to whom ever she wants in her will. However, if you think that she was unduly influenced and did not understand what she was signing when she left the house to your nephew, then you should speak with an attorney to see if further action can be taken.

Can my father's wife get all his belongings even if she was left one dollar in his will?

Answered by attorney Robert James Slotkin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Robert J. Slotkin
Yes, in Florida if a person is survived by a spouse, the spouse gets to keep the first $20,000 in household property and up to 2 cars. However, there is an exception if the item(s) was specifically bequeathed to someone else in the will.
