Jamesville, NY Estate Planning Law Firms & Lawyers

At the time your will is read, you won't have any need for a guardian. However, if you are naming a guardian for your minor children or for a person who is not able to care for him/herself, then you can add a codicil to your will making the change. However, for something this important, I would recommend drafting a new will. It shouldn't cost much for the person who drafted your current will to pull up the document on his/her computer and substitute a new name.

In Missouri, you will need to see an attorney. I am assuming that your father's share of the the value of the property is over $40,000. You may have to do a petition to determine heirs in regard to your father's estate and your mother's estate. Be sure to take the deed and the death certificates to the attorney to discuss this matter and have the names and addresses of all the children available.

Hello. My name is Damien. I am an attorney in New York City practicing in the New York City metropolitan area. For estate administration and probate issues, you would want a Trusts & Estates (T&E) Attorney. T&E attorneys handle, not only estate planning, but also estate administration and probate as well as, in most cases, estate litigation. Generally, when someone dies, the executor, if there is a Will or an heir will become the personal representative of the estate upon petitioning the court. So, an heir could attempt to review the court file to determine the status of a proceeding or attempt to request an accounting of the proceeding informally from the personal representative, or through a petition to the court for an accounting. If you need any assistance, a New York Trusts & Estates Attorney could help you. If you wish to speak on the phone about it, you can call Damien Bosco, P.C. at (646) 452-7082 or email me at DamienBoscoEsq@gmail.com
