Can I find out about my father's will if I don't have a copy?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
Sorry, this is not an Oregon question; I think Texas may be a community property state. Often, married couples hold their assets jointly. Your father's will may not even be needed to transfer all his assets to his spouse.

Does the family inure the debt the father made without their knowledge once he dies?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Charles Richard Perry (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Charles R. Perry
The community property of your mother and father can be reached for the debt that your father incurred. When someone passes away, moreover, their estate is liable for their debts, and any property transferred without those debts being paid can still be reached by creditors to pay the debt, unless those debts are extinguished in a probate proceeding. It seems clear that any creditor of your father will be able to make a claim against the death benefits once they are received, and will be able to "follow" those benefits to whomever receives them. In any event, a person's estate does not pass automatically free and clear of any debts that person may have incurred.

Who has the legal rights to a deceased person's car?

James Brian Thomas
Answered by attorney James Brian Thomas (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
Sounds like a pretty open-and-shut case to me. I can't even begin to think of how a suit by your nephew could involve a vehicle that has not been used in 18 years. Even then, if your father has been sued, he needs to consider retaining a lawyer. At a minimum, the attorney could help your father timely file an Answer to the suit, assert any of a potential number of affirmative defenses and likely get the nephew's claims dismissed fairly quickly.
