When you become an administrator of an estate, how do you know your duties?

Answered by attorney Joan M. Durkin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Durkin & Graham, P.C.
The court will only give you instructions on whether or not you need to file an inventory. As executor/administrator you should hire an attorney to advise you on how to proceed. The will may say whether you are to be paid or not. Often times even when the will says the executor can be paid, if the executor is also an heir and it is family, they often waive the fee. If there is no will then you are likely eligible for a statutory fee of up to 5% of the value of the estate (ie. the proceeds that you collect from selling assets).

The short answer is yes (though as usual there are exceptions and other dynamics especially if there is a conflict).

Dad is widowed has a girl friend that he left as sole beneficiary did not mention his kids in the will what can we do if anything

Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
In Texas people can leave their things to whomever they wish.  You might consider contesting the Will if you have evidence tending to prove fraud, lack of legal capacity or undue influence.  Your description indicates none of these.  The last two can be very difficult to prove.  A Will contest can cost as much or more than you might inherit with no guaranty that you will win.
