What is the probate process after a parent's death?

Answered by attorney Bernard H. Greenberg
Estate Planning lawyer at Kokish & Goldmanis, P.C.
I am sorry for your loss. Whether his estate will be probated at all will depend on the following factors: 1. What was the nature and title of his property. 2. The terms of his Last Will. This is where he would have nominated an executor. 3. His home state of residence. For additional information, consult with an attorney specializing in estate administration.

Can an outside child have stake in my Dad's property?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
I am not exactly sure what you mean by an "outside child." If you simply mean someone who is disinherited by the Will, the answer is generally no. There is an exempt property allowance of $14k that can be claimed by any spouse or child, so there is a chance the child could elect that. Otherwise, unless the Will is contested, the child would not be entitled to anything. The family could decide to give him something anyway. But there would be no legal requirement to do so.

Can the executor close a bank account?

Estate Planning lawyer at Glojek Limited
Power of attorney is worthless upon death. The personal representative can close a bank account and move the funds to an estate account.
