If something happens to my husband, would I be kicked out of my home?

It depends on the title of the home, among other things. Your situation is really crying out for legal assistance, as soon as possible.

What rights does the estate have if the executor of the will removed all of the deceased things from the property?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
The executor is obligated by law to preserve and protect the decedent's assets (the estate ) prior to paying all debts and distributing the remaining assets to the beneficiaries or heirs (you and the other grandchildren). That's why she changed the locks on the house. You will need to contact her to ask why she wasn't present on the agreed upon date for you to walk through the house. Your grandmother's will should have been submitted to the local probate court by the executor. She will have to submit reports about the estate and its distribution periodically (as required by statute). You can receive copies of those reports by asking either her or the probate court.

Is there a conflict between a Durable Power of Attorney and an Executor of a will?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Susan Goodkind Wideman (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at The Wideman Law Center, P.C.
No the durable power of attorney has authority when the person is alive only, and the Executor has authority after the person dies if they have a Court order appointing them.
