Can the executor change the locks of a house if it was not written in the will?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Kenneth A Prigmore (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Prigmore Law
Executors have the responsibility of protecting and properly distributing the estate of the deceased. As a beneficiary, you have the right to see the testamentary documents that include you. Demand a copy of the will, trust, and any other gifting documents. If the Executor refuses, tell them you can sue and get them without much difficulty. Executors also have the responsibility to prepare an accounting of the estate, so if he has been making equal distributions, he should be able to show what the entire estate included. Finally, if you doubt the Executor's statements and actions, you may have to sue to find out the truth. Unfortunately, this can be very stressful and expensive, so you may not want to start any action until you are sure there is a problem. Locking the house is not automatically a breach of an Executor's duties. Timing is important. It is best to demand that all beneficiaries be allowed to review the contents of the home prior to the executor's "Sweep" of the house removing valuables. It sounds like you are too late to do that. You can still demand that he escort you around the home to see what is still there. Sometimes simply retaining an attorney who will write a letter to the executor demanding an accounting and threatening suit if he fails to disclose the contents of the estate will be enough to keep things in order. Please note: Prescription medications should be destroyed, not passed on to heirs for non prescription use. This is both the law and common sense. There is no known right to inheritance of prescription medications.

How does one stop a court proceeding?

Christine James
Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
You cannot stop a court case. If it is in the wrong jurisdiction however, and you are within the proper time limit and have not subjected yourself to the jurisdiction of the court, you can do a Demurrer based on jurisdiction and likely get the case dismissed. However, all this will do is tell the person where to file in the proper jurisdiction and you will end up in court again.

What can we do to keep from paying all her money to the nursing home?

Answered by attorney Don L Rosenberg (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Barron, Rosenberg, Mayoras & Mayoras, P.C.
Honestly this is what I do for a living. If your mother is married I can protect all of a married couples money except for possible income tax consequences on IRA's etc... As for a single person we can protect somewhere between 50% and 70% of the assets and accelerate Medicaid qualification. I need to know more about your situation. I have been doing this for 30 years and have never been denied a Medicaid application. Further, it is usually never too late to plan.
