If the will states that there are two equal shares to my mother’s bank account is in joint names can I take half out without my sister’s consent?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
What the Will says does not matter, if the account is truly joint. If it is not a joint asset, it cannot be made one without going through probate. In other words, if the account was in your mother's name alone, it is now part of her estate and your sister is in control of it. If it was a joint account, then your sister has no legal control of it as Personal Representative, because her authority extends only to probate assets. If there is something else going on, then more information is needed. You may want to consult with a lawyer on this before taking any further action.

What are the duties of an executor and when do I get to see the will of the estate I just inherited?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Kathleen Delacy (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Reger Rizzo & Darnall, LLP
You need to make sure the directions in the will are carried out, you need to open an estate with the Register of Wills if needed and follow the filing requirements. If you know there is a will and you are the executor, hopefully the decedent told you where the will is.

If a Will states an estate to be divided among 3 siblings and one dies, does his share go to his remaining family (his wife and children)?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
It depends upon what the will says in the event one of the beneficiaries dies and who died first, the beneficiary or the person who made the will. Many attorneys will review the will for you and advise you for little or no cost and I recommend you take advantage of that.
