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

I would give them the Death Certificate as well. The bank is probably just following their internal procedures. While your lawyer is not wrong, it is going to be easier to just give the bank what it wants that to try to fight them on this. If it was something more expensive or complicated, I might challenge them. In this case, I would just give it to them. Perhaps they can make a copy of the original and give it back to you.

Since the state does not recognize legal separations, can I buy a house without my mate?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
I'm not entirely sure I understand your question, but I gather that you and your spouse are separated and living in Texas. In the event that you purchase a home in your sole name, that property will be considered community property because you bought it while being married. If you'd like to buy a house on your own and have it be considered your sole and separate property, you need to get a divorce from your spouse and then buy the home.

Can I get control over my father's estate if I live in a different estate than he does?

Answered by attorney S Christopher Hunter (Unclaimed Profile)

Yes. There is no requirement that you live in the same state as your father in order to be his personal representative. However, if he had a will the person who was nominated would have priority. If there was no will then his wife (if living), and your siblings if any will have to duke it out.
