What can we do if we named our sister the executor but she's mishandling our funds?

Answered by attorney Christine Sabio Socrates (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Christine Sabio Socrates Attorney at Law
If this is a probate estate, the probate court requires an inventory of assets be filed and then requires a fiduciary's filed account once a year that documents all of the income, expenditures and distribution of the estate. You can look into the file at probate court to see if this has been done. However, a copy should have been provided and either have a waiver signed by each heir or a hearing set on the matter and all of the heirs sent notice of said hearing. If there is no probate estate but your sister is administering your father's trust, the trust should provide that you are entitled to accounting as well. Either way, you can file an action in probate court if you think that she is mishandling funds.

What should she do if she was informed by his children she had to leave the house and had nothing for her because they were just married six months?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
She should get a lawyer and explain all of the details. Even though the house was in his name, she may have the spouse's claim on a portion of the house. Also, is there a will that designates where the property was to go? Was there a pre-nup? These are all things that a lawyer would have to investigate before giving a proper answer.

Can a seller sue buyer for backing out of a house contract?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James P. Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
Possibly. It is likely that your contract only calls for you to keep their deposit, however, and not to specifically sue for performance. If there is a problem turned up by the inspection, you may not even be able to keep the deposit. A faulty inspection would give them the right to back out of the deal. So you may have a case and you may not.
