What are our options if executor dragging on the estate?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
Check with the court to see if an estate has opened. See if the Will has been deposited. You probably need to consult with an estate attorney where your father died to assist you getting this matter resolved. Best of luck to you.

If my sister died without a will and 6 months later her husband died, can her son claim what she left?

Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
Maybe. The life insurance would have beneficiaries named, and there would be contract terms. It will depend on the exact terms of the contract. If husband was entitled to it, his estate may now be entitled to it. The other items, her son (probably, and exact relationships need to be pinned down) would get half, and Dad's estate would get half.

What should I do if my grandma and aunts excluded me in my father’s funeral arrangements and his personal property?

Under Michigan Statute, if an individual dies without a will the estate passes by the intestate rules. You would be the first to inherit. I would recommend that you file a petition with the Probate Court in the county where you father lived to be named as the Personal Representative of his estate. With that authority you can demand that your aunts return all personal items to you to be distributed according to the intestacy laws. You will probably want to consult with an attorney beyond the responses you get here.
