Who is in charge of the estate of a father dies with no will?

James Brian Thomas
Answered by attorney James Brian Thomas (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
Nobody is in charge unless and until the Court puts them in charge. You should run and not walk to a probate attorney near you immediately, as your inquiry raises some significant concerns. When a person dies without a Will in Texas, their property passes to their heirs. The list of heirs never includes live-in girlfriends, and based on your brief facts, the decedent's sister has no greater right to anything than the girlfriend. Do not permit this situation to continue. Doing so will only make it increasingly more difficult to advocate and enforce your rights.

If a portion of an estate requires probate, does this delay the payment of the estate that is in a trust (and not subject to probate)?

Christine James
Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
No it does not. They can be dealt with separately but the trustee will ultimately need to account for all (in the event of a pour-over will).

You can petition the court to remove him as trustee. You would have to provide the court with proof that he is mismanaging the trust. A trusts and estates or probate lawyer can help you gather your evidence and petition the court.
