Commonly Asked Estate Planning Questions From Users Near You

This information is not legal advice and is not guaranteed to be correct, complete or up-to-date. It is provided for general informational purposes only. If you need legal advice you should consult a licensed attorney in your area.

Can you offer me some legal insight on what that might be or how they can benefit from prolonging the process of dividing the property?

Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
There could be any number of legitimate reasons that the estate hasn't been closed yet. Dividing up land, especially income-producing land, is always difficult. Each parcel may be worth a different amount than the others, and some land within each parcel may be worth more or less than the rest of the parcel. If there are 500 acres of land, do the executors give each beneficiary 100 acres? If the total value of all the land is $500,000, does each beneficiary get $100,00 worth, even though it may mean that one beneficiary gets 10 acres, another gets 250 acres, and the rest is divided among the remaining heirs? What if one piece of land is worth significantly less right now than it will three years from now? Should the farm land automatically go to the farmer when it's a 100+ miles from the rest of his farm (too far to move his existing machinery)? Does the family member who gets the recreation property have an obligation to let the other heirs continue to use it? Sometimes it's better/easier to sell everything and divide up the income.

What could the executor have wanted my personal information for?

Randall C. Romei
Answered by attorney Randall C. Romei (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Ashcraft & Ashcraft, Ltd.
The personal information will be required to claim the benefits of an insurance policy. Personal information would also be required in the event income is distributed and has to be reported to the IRS. Inherited funds are not taxable but income earned by the estate prior to distribution may be taxable to the person to whom it is distributed.

I want to put my mother’s house in my name would a quick claim dead or just adding my name to title be best?

Christine James
Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
This is complicated and you want to make sure an attorney is involved so that the transfer does not get undone after your mother passes away. Be very careful with this.
