Is there a time limit after a person dies that the executor must execute the will?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
There is no time limit, but your question troubles me. Who has the will, if not family members? No one is "executor" (the proper term in Oregon is "personal representative") until they are appointed as such by the probate court the designation in the Will is the decedent's preference, and is given deference by the court, but no one is "executor" until they have letters testamentary which are issued only by the probate court. If you believe that you are included in your mother-in-law's will, see an attorney about being named personal representative yourself. If nothing else, this will bring the person named in the will forward and force matters to issue.

Can I get my inheritance early?

Answered by attorney Norman Harry Green (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger LLP
Depends on the nature of the arrangement: Is it a trust? Depends on terms of the document. She may be able to resign and designate you as successor trustee, or to petition the court. Is it a custodianship (under CTMA - Calif. Transfers to Minors Act)? Probably easier. Is it a guardianship - not without court permission Other?

If his wife tries to cut me out of what was his before he married her, would I have any right to stop her from taking the land he said would be mine?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
In a 46 year marriage it is unlikely there is any separate property and if he left a will leaving everything to his wife, you are likely out of luck.
