Hello im trying to open an account an deposit my deceased sons check im the representative for his estate its less than6,000 do i have to settle in pr

Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
If that is all your son left, you may not need to go to court but you will need to file a Small Estate Affidavit, wait for the judge's signature and find a bank which will accept it.  In any event, we have had independent administrations in Texas since 1843.  Probate here is neither as expensive nor as time consuming as you may imagine.

Can I sue my father's girlfriend and my uncle for dividing my father's belongings without my knowledge?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Geoffrey N Germane (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Kirton & McConkie A Professional Corporation
You may very well have a valid legal claim and the time limit for bringing this claim has likely already started running. The answer to your question depends on whether or not your father left a will or a trust. If he did not, and there was no surviving spouse, you would have certain rights under the law to a portion of your father's estate, and perhaps even all of it. In such a case, you would have recourse against your uncle and your father's girlfriend for taking the property. You should consult with an attorney experienced in probate matters as soon as possible to discuss the details.

Am I responsible for the bills that belonged to my deceased mother?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
No, the heirs are not responsible for the debts of the deceased UNLESS those debts were guaranteed or co-signed, or unless the heirs took assets from the deceased that could have been used to pay the debts.
