How can I go about making a free will?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
Write out your wishes in your own writing, date it and sign it, and you are done. Make sure that everyone knows where to find your Will in the event of your death. (This is not the BEST way to make a Will.) It is the cheapest, however. An attorney can advise you as to whether there are better planning tools available for you. Many people prefer to avoid probate, for example, and you cannot do that with a Will.

Am I responsible for the bills that belonged to my deceased mother?

Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
If you were helping your mom with her finances, it is possible that your actions could make you liable. In general, though, you are not responsible for the debts of a parent.

My husband and I would like to sell our land, however, it is in a trust with his 2 sibblings with undevided interest. We own 3/4 of the land...

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
If the land is in a trust, you do not own it:  the trust does.  The trustee decides whether to sell the land.  The beneficiaries (apparently your husband and his two siblings) do not. If a trustee is not putting the interests of the beneficiaries first but is putting his own interests first, the beneficiaries can sue to have him removed.  But whether selling or not selling the land is putting the beneficiaries first is a big question.  You may want to take a copy of the trust agreement to a lawyer who does fiduciary litigation and discuss the specific facts.
