Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
Assuming your father died with assets of at least $150,000.00 in California, and this was the state of his residence, a petition for probate would be filed in the county of his last known residence, and you should seek the assistance of a probate lawyer to handle the matter, and who are paid out of the assets of the estate.

When you become an administrator of an estate, how do you know your duties?

Estate Planning lawyer at Edward L. Armstrong, P.C.
The attorney for the estate should tell you what he expects you to do. In Missouri, the personal representative receives a commission based on the value of the property that is actually part of the probate estate. This would only include real property if it was sold. The probate estate normally (in Missouri) does not include any property that the decedent owned jointly with another person (except tenancy in common) and will not include property in trust or life insurance proceeds payable to a named beneficiary (other than the personal representative or the estate). The commission scale is as follows: 5% on the first $5,000 4% on the next $20,000 3% on the next $75,000 2.75% on the next $600,000 2% on everything over $1,000,000.
