If I missed the hearing to remove me as Personal Representative, what can I do?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Kenneth A Prigmore (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Prigmore Law
You can always file another motion to make another change. If you can show the Judge that 1) you had a good reason for missing the hearing, and 2) you have been acting appropriately as the PR, you may be allowed to remain PR. Please note, it is unusual for the PR to live in the home for an extended period of time. Unless the testamentary documents directly gave you this right, then you would normally be expected to use the property solely for the benefit of the beneficiaries of the estate. Personal Representatives will sometimes allow someone to live in the home of the deceased, but will normally charge rent or reduce the inheritance of the beneficiary, unless all beneficiaries agree to allow someone to stay in the home rent free. Personal Representatives have a duty to see that the estate property is not wasted and is liquidated and distributed according to the testamentary intent of the decedent in a prompt manner.

Do I need to get a formal appraisal if I'm gifting a percentage of a family LLC to my children?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
If you are using the fair value of marketable securities then a letter from the brokerage addressing the value on the day of trade may be sufficient. The statement is generally not sufficient as it only has the closing price for one day of the month on it. Values are usually not the closing value but an amalgamation of prices throughout the day in question. This information is only intended to give general information in response to an inquiry. It does not establish an attorney client relationship. This response is only based upon the limited facts presented and is merely intended to assist you in determining if you should contact an attorney to provide you with legal advice.
