Once a will has been made, can the other spouse change it?

Only the person who wrote the will can change it. Your mother could not change your father's will and your father could not change your mother's will. As your father passed away first, his wishes control who gets the property. Your father's estate should have been settled within a year after his death. And you should arrange to sell the house and divide the profits equally between the siblings as there is no way twelve people can agree on anything.

What are my duties and rights as an executor of fathers will?

David L. Leon
Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
You need to go to probate court and get letters issued. Once you get the letters issued, you can contact the bank and let them know that money was taken out of the account post mortem. If your mother is not on that account and didn't have permission, then she may have committed a crime.

Should I sign an executor form if it says the funds have already been received?

David Goldman
Answered by attorney David Goldman
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of David M. Goldman PLLC
You should hire a NY lawyer to advise you on this. Generally you should not sign a full release unless it specifies what you will receive or how it will be calculated.
