Can an outside child have stake in my Dad's property?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
I am not exactly sure what you mean by an "outside child." If you simply mean someone who is disinherited by the Will, the answer is generally no. There is an exempt property allowance of $14k that can be claimed by any spouse or child, so there is a chance the child could elect that. Otherwise, unless the Will is contested, the child would not be entitled to anything. The family could decide to give him something anyway. But there would be no legal requirement to do so.

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

Melissa Ann Botting
Answered by attorney Melissa Ann Botting (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Melissa A. Botting
An executor can be removed for cause by filing a motion in the probate court detailing what the executor has done to deserve to be removed. The executor will be able to respond and a hearing will be held to review any evidence presented. If wrongdoing is proved, the judge can remove the executor.

Does the family inure the debt the father made without their knowledge once he dies?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Edward M Olson (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Olson Law Firm
Upon your father's death, his debts pass to his estate. No one else is personally liable for his debts (except to the extent that you hide his assets from his creditors). You should probably speak to an attorney soon.
