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

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
The issues you are addressing are minor. You need to focus on the big picture and could use the counsel of an attorney for that (see 15 minute lawyer.com for low cost legal advise). Has your brother in law been appointed executor by the court? If not, he has no legal authority to do anything. In addition it sounds like, since the house is empty, it needs to be sold and the proceeds distributed. What is being done to make that happen?

My mom, my ex and myself own a duplex . My mom lived on one side is on other. Mom died leaving her half of duplex to boyfriend. Can I contest ?

Answered by attorney Lori Nevias
Estate Planning lawyer at Lori Nevias, Attorney at Law
If the will was properly executed, unless you can prove that the boyfriend coerced or unduly influenced her into leaving him her half of the duplex, you probably cannot contest the will- especially if there's a no-contest clause, which would generally provide that you lose your share if you challenge the will. It is important to have the will or a copy reviewed by an attorney to make sure it was properly executed.

How do you find out if a deceased person ever had a will or not?

Damien Matthew Bosco
Answered by attorney Damien Matthew Bosco (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Damien Bosco, P.C.
Hello. My name is Damien. I am an attorney in New York City practicing in the New York City metropolitan area. It sounds like either you do not have access to your father's residence prior to his death to search his files and records, or you do have access and cannot find the original will or copy of the will. If there is a will, he should have kept either the original in his possession (in his files) or a copy of it. If there is a copy of it and an attorney drafted the will, then you would check to see if the attorney has the original will. Another possibility is that your father filed his will with the Surrogate's Court. It is not necessary to do so. However, a person could file their will prior to death with the surrogate's court clerk. So, you could check with the Surrogate's Court to see if there is a will on file. If you need any assistance, a New York Trusts & Estates Attorney could help you. If you wish to speak on the phone about it, you can call Damien Bosco, P.C. at (646) 452-7082 or email me at DamienBoscoEsq@gmail.com
