Is there anything legal that can be done if the executor won't change their mind?

You can petition the probate court to either appoint another executor or supervise the actions of the current executors.

If I leave my estate to my wife, does it have to go to probate?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Christine Sabio Socrates (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Christine Sabio Socrates Attorney at Law
It depends on how you set up your estate planning. If your will leaves everything you have to your wife and you do nothing further, then you may have to go through probate. You need to make sure that each of your assets are either joint with your wife or have her designated as your beneficiary. You should speak to an estate planning attorney to review your situation and make sure that you are set up to avoid probate at your death, if that is your priority. He/she can also give you other options to protect you, your wife, and your assets should you incur issues such as incompetency, incapacity, illness or other issues. I would be happy to discuss your estate planning needs if you would like.

Not unless there was an agreement between your sister, as executor, and you as to how much the rent would be.
