Can the executor change the locks of a house if it was not written in the will?

Answered by attorney James Bloomfield Oberholtzer
Estate Planning lawyer at James Oberholtzer, Chartered
It is the Executor's job to make sure the property is safe and secure. That is a good reason to keep it locked up. If you want more access, I would start with talking to the Executor about what you want to do.

How long do creditors have to make a claim against a deceased estate?

Answered by attorney Sharon M. Siegel
Estate Planning lawyer at Siegel & Siegel, P.C.
Technically, a creditor must file a claim with the Surrogate's Court within 7 months from issuance of letters. An Executor is also responsible for claims that he/she had reasonable notice of. The way of truly protecting yourself is to file a Voluntary Accounting on notice to anyone you have reasonable notice of and getting a decree from the court.
