How long do creditors have to make a claim against a deceased estate?

Sharon M. Siegel
Answered by attorney Sharon M. Siegel
Estate Planning lawyer at Siegel & Siegel, P.C.
Technically, a creditor must file a claim with the Surrogate's Court within 7 months from issuance of letters. An Executor is also responsible for claims that he/she had reasonable notice of. The way of truly protecting yourself is to file a Voluntary Accounting on notice to anyone you have reasonable notice of and getting a decree from the court.

How do I leave everything to my kids?

Estate Planning lawyer at Edward L. Armstrong, P.C.
You may leave whatever you wish to your children. Your spouse, however, has the right to elected to take a share in your estate without regard to your will. If you have no assets or don't have many this won't mean much, but the spouse does have the right of election to take against your estate - you cannot disinherit a spouse.
