Can siblings take away another sibling from being executor of mother's estate?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
First, I need to clarify some terminology. An executor is the person designated to handle the financial affairs of a person who died with a will. A personal representative does the same thing for a person who died without a will. Because you used the word executor, I'm going to assume that your mother died with a will. If one sibling has been named the executor of your mother's will, and the other siblings do not believe that sibling is qualified for an ethical or legal reason, the siblings may file what is known as a will contest to disqualify that named executor and have someone else named as the executor. There are specific reasons to disqualify someone from being an executor, and it's a good idea to seek counsel from a local attorney for more information about how to proceed.

Under the law, once a will has gone through probate and executor is appointed, should this be sufficient to access bank accounts?

Answered by attorney Sabina Tomshinsky
Estate Planning lawyer at Home Town Law, P.A.
Generally, a certified copy of the Letters of Administration (a document formally appointing you as the Personal Representative of your husband's estate) along with the death certificate without cause of death and your photo ID should be sufficient.

How can I bring my mother home from the nursing home if my daughter had power of attorney revoked?

Eric James Smith
Answered by attorney Eric James Smith (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
Show the nursing home and any other relevant third party who might purchase your mother's property the revocation (It must be in writing, and your mother must have had legal capacity at the time she executed it). If your mother still has capacity, she can voice her own desire to leave with you. If your mother has lost capacity due to dementia or other mental deterioration, you may need to file for guardianship for her.
