Nobody.. only the estate is responsible..The house should be offered back to the mortgage company Everything else should be sold and first adminstrative expenses be paid.. including the cost of the funeral..then the creditors get everything else.

What action can be taken against someone who was assigned in a Will to cover funeral expenses and did not do so?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
Likely none. Even if the Will says "the insurance money to go to my daughter is to be used for my funeral expenses," if the daughter was beneficiary, then the money is hers and she can legally do whatever she wants with it. There is not much that can be done about this. You should consult with an attorney to assist you in administering the estate, regardless of the outcome on this issue.

Does a will supersede a prenup?

Answered by attorney Ronald K. Nims (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Ronald K. Nims
A prenuptial agreement or ante-nuptial agreement (they are two names for the same thing), means that the spouse gives up all rights she/he would have had to property in a divorce or death. Your husband's heirs are his parents, sisters, nieces and nephews, in the absence of a will, these heirs would receive all his assets. Because you singed a prenup, you don't have the right to "elect against the will". Your husband's will directs where his assets will go, without regard to his heirs. Most people write a will that distributes assets to their heir but a will can give the assets to almost anybody (most states still don't allow you to give your assets to pet). If your husband elects to give you a portion of his assets, despite the prenup, that's fine but if you husband decides to give all his assets to Heidi Klum, that's fine, too. (He could do worse than having all his friends and associates assuming that he must have had an affair with Heidi or why would have he have given her his $10 million.) If you are dependent on his income, I'd recommend that you buy a life insurance policy where he's the insured and you're the owner/beneficiary.
