How do we legally remove people (family) in house after homeowner dies?

Estate Planning lawyer at The Law Office of Robert I. Long
The person that establishes they represent the estate would have standing under California law to evict the occupants. The authority may be established by proving they are named as Executor under the Will (if there is no trust), or are named as next-succeeding trustee if there is a trust and the property is titled in the trust or, if neither of those, successfully petitions to be appointed personal representative of the estate. There is a priority list for who will be entitled to Letters. Not an easy process to navigate without an attorney experienced in probate administration.

You are strongly advised to do a new will or trust. Seek an estate planning attorney to advise you. An appropriately executed estate plan will prevent future lawsuits by children representatives in the event of your death. Your remarriage can have long term effects as to your children rights to your estate in the future and death.
