Where can I inquire about a last will and testament?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
There is not an easy way to determine if the Will submitted is the last Will executed. You could start by contacting the attorney who prepared the Will to see if any updates were made. If you have access to the Decedent's bank or credit card records you could look for payments to an attorney. You should probably discuss the next steps with an attorney.

How could I deny property inheritance?

Randall C. Romei
Answered by attorney Randall C. Romei (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Ashcraft & Ashcraft, Ltd.
With a timely filing you are able to disclaim an inheritance. The estate would transfer the property to another heir or if none accept the distribution the estate would remain responsible and eventually the property would be foreclosed upon by a lender or the condo association.

Can creditors collect after your death? Must a will be probated? Can I do it with a lawyer?

Randy M Lish
Answered by attorney Randy M Lish (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Randy M. Lish, Attorney at Law
I believe that all states have statutes that govern the priority of creditors of an estate. Generally, the assets left behind must be used to pay off creditors, and then distributions made to heirs. In order to prove a will valid, it must be probated, and a good probate can help a lot. If you have specific questions, you need to see a probate lawyer who practices in the state where the deceased resided at the time of death.
