Under the law, once a will has gone through probate and executor is appointed, should this be sufficient to access bank accounts?

Give the Bank what they want. It is not worth fighting with them. Just calling your attorney has cost you more than the cost of the death certificate. Many institutions will require the death certificate.

Can my husband put his name on the deed of his brother's condo if he has a POA over his assets?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
This is probably not something he should do, unless there are lots of other facts. If your husband was the only heir of his brother, it would make it a little easier to say yes. Same thing if the brother's Will says everything goes to your husband. If a court approved it. More information is needed.

Is it customary that beneficiary decendancy go to direct heirs, by bloodline, of a trust when an heir dies?

Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
It is not a question of customary, it is a question of what the testator wanted to do. Perhaps he or she did not trust the spouse or felt that the spouse would be able to go on with his or her life and would not need the benefits of the trust. You may also talk to the trustee about whether the trustee can pay for certain necessities of the children while living with the spouse, e.g. mortgage, utilities, schooling.
