What do we need to do if his wife and I want me to be able to talk to the people he owed money to?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
The death of a child is exceptionally difficult. In Nevada, the wife should talk to an attorney about possible handling a set aside of the estate.

The probate attorney is reducing commission agreed to before death of client. Should I seek legal services?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
I have no idea what you are talking about. Commission for what? Probate lawyers do not charge commissions. They charge legal fees for their services. There is no fee schedule in Michigan. A lawyer could charge $500, 1%, $10,000 or 20%. Whatever the client agrees to is what the fee would be. When you speak of listing agreements and extensions, you have lost me completely. Did the decedent sign an agreement to sell a house? Is the lawyer trying to change the terms of that agreement? If that is your case, then you have no obligation to agree to alter the terms.

Do I need to change the will now that I’m married or my wife will be entitled to everything regardless of the will?

Answered by attorney Phillip Gustavo Day (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Phillip Day, P.L.
Need to change will. Florida law has an elective share for a disinherited spouse but that is not 100% of the estate. If you do not change your will, you may not like the results. Contact an estate planning attorney and he or she will explain the advantages of having a correctly drafted will.
