How long after filing paperwork can an estate case take?

Answered by attorney James T Weiner (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at James T. Weiner, P.C.
This is not estate planning but probate. Generally if you file for informal probate then you may never even have a hearing unless someone objects (another heir) to a proposed action such as your appointment as personal representative, proposed distribution, proposed accounting etc. Full probably must take a minimum of 4 months and can take a lot longer. If the assets of the estate are less than $17,000 there is a simplified 1 day probate procedure.

Does a will supersede a prenup?

Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
Absent any special circumstances or state laws overriding, the terms of the prenup will probably stand. If your husband dies intestate (no will), state law will determine who inherits. Since neither you nor your children are entitled to anything (the prenup) and he doesn't have any children of his own, his estate will likely go to his parents or, if they're both deceased, to his sisters. As your name is not on the house, you would also need to find another place to live after his death.

It could be some type of fraud. You need to contact the administrator of the plan to see what they can do for you.
