Can I find out about my father's will if I don't have a copy?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
Immediately call a Texas attorney and see if you can file for probate. That will force the will out if there is one. This type of forum is too slow to get you the answers you need, and you need them now. Don't wait any longer on this, call a Texas attorney today.

You need to file a contest to the will if she submits an invalid will to probate. This will put the court on alert that something is amiss with your mother's estate. It's definitely a good idea for you to get a consultation with an attorney familiar with probate litigation.

Does the surviving spouse with a will still go into probate when there is a POA and does the acting POA still has to perform as a POA for the spouse?

Answered by attorney Eric James Smith (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
A Power of Attorney is a sharing of rights between living people, and it is void upon the death of the principal. Not to make light of a death, but dead people do not own property - that is the role of probate. There is no requirement that a will be presented for probate, but often a properly executed will is the simplest way to start the probate process. See what property remains in the decedent's name, and if that property cannot be transferred to the heirs or beneficiaries (real estate, financial accounts with no named beneficiary), contact a local attorney to see what form of probate best suits the needs of the estate.
