Commonly Asked Estate Planning Questions From Users Near You

How can I find out more information about my mother's estate?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
First and foremost, this may be a big undertaking. You can go to court to be appointed as the administrator of the Estate then investigate what occurred. This is not an inexpensive process as you will be forensically tracking down the transactions, since your brother destroyed the records. You should speak to an attorney who can advise you of what is required and the costs associated with certain options that you could pursue, which would include filing with the court, getting appointed, obtaining copies of all bank statements and checks, reviewing the escrow documents, etc.

There are ways to do this. The best way is with a special needs trust, which you can do for your friend. It will solve this problem.

Do we have to wait for my brother to sell my mothers home before reading the will?

Answered by attorney Darin Christensen (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Bullivant Houser Bailey PC
No. The power of attorney ceases to have legal effect on your mother's death. He has no legal authority to do anything using the power of attorney. You should proceed to have the will probated and the personal representative (executor) can sell the home.
