What can I do if I am executor to my mothers will but nothing has been done with the house?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
You probably should consult with an attorney who will need to review the court file to determine what has and has not been done. Also it is important to confirm how title was held to the home when your mother died. There is a possibility that it is not a probate asset and is not subject to the Will.

I have a small check made out to me and my mother estate can I cash the check with out going through probate

Loraine M. DiSalvo
Answered by attorney Loraine M. DiSalvo
Estate Planning lawyer at Morgan & DiSalvo, P.C.
You can try to deposit the check into an account with your name on it, but if that doesn't work you may have to open the estate and deposit it into an estate account. You ideally also need to consult with a probate attorney to see what else you need to do: just because you are able to cash the check does not mean that it is yours to keep or that you don't have to deal with her estate.

Claim the Deed

Loraine M. DiSalvo
Answered by attorney Loraine M. DiSalvo
Estate Planning lawyer at Morgan & DiSalvo, P.C.
You need the administrator of the estates (who may be you- it's not clear from your post) to write a deed transferring the property from your parents' estates to you. It is often called an Administrator's Deed. That deed gets recorded with the Superior Court of the county where the property is located. The deed should not be executed or recorded before the estate administration has been fully completed otherwise- in other words, all of the creditors have to have been properly notified and outstanding debts paid in full, and the distribution must be made properly. Yes, you should have an attorney help you with all of that, including the deed. Find a good probate attorney and have them help you finish up the process.   Best wishes to you and please accept my condolences on the loss of your parents.
