Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
Your will is the last thing you say on Earth. When it "speaks," it is beyond fixing, because the only person who can change the will is the person who made it, and that person is gone when the will is read. It doesn't cost that much to get a lawyer to help, compared to the impact of getting something wrong (and we see it all the time).

Can you use items in an estate without permission that do not belong to you?

It would depend upon the item(s), its value, and how you plan to use it. Can you use a pen belonging from the decedent to sign some estate documents? Yes. Can you you use the car? No. Responsibility for the closing of the estate has been given to you but the assets do not belong to you. You are also legally responsible for maintaining the assets in good condition and could be liable to the heirs for any damage you do.

Honestly this is what I do for a living. If your mother is married I can protect all of a married couples money except for possible income tax consequences on IRA's etc... As for a single person we can protect somewhere between 50% and 70% of the assets and accelerate Medicaid qualification. I need to know more about your situation. I have been doing this for 30 years and have never been denied a Medicaid application. Further, it is usually never too late to plan.
