Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
You can make the claim. The family is going to say the services were gratuitous. There are deadlines for making a claim in an estate, so if you're going to do it, do it soon.

Can I get control over my father's estate if I live in a different estate than he does?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
It depends upon a number of factors, including but not limited to the following: Whether he left a Will naming you as his personal representative. If he left a Will naming you, the answer is probably yes, assuming you meet all state law requirement. If he names another person, then the answer is probably not. If he did not leave a Will, it again depends upon state law. In Nevada, a personal representative who is not named in a Will cannot serve without an in state co-personal representative. Some states do not have a residency requirement.

If one heir out of 6 refuses to sign for a house to be sold, is there a way the others can sell it without that signature?

Christine James
Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
If there is a trustee or executor it can be sold without the signature. Otherwise you will have to go to court and get an order to "partition" the property.
