If the wife doesn't apply for administrator after the death of her spouse, can one of their children apply?

Answered by attorney Edward L. Armstrong (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Edward L. Armstrong, P.C.
Yes, if the surviving spouse does not apply within the period allowed after death (the time period is very short, like 20 days) then one of the children can apply to be personal representative. The child would need to retain counsel.

Am I responsible for my dead husband's hospital and doctor bills?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
It depends on if you signed as a responsible party. Additionally to the extent your father had assets that were given to you in the past few years or upon his death, you may be responsible to the extent of the gifts or inheritance. If you received no gifts, no inheritance and did not sign as a responsible party, then you should not be responsible. If you did, you should speak with an attorney.
