What do I do if my mother has passed without signing over a power of attorney?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
Power of attorney is never valid after someone dies. If she left an estate, it will likely have to be probated. See a probate attorney to discuss the details. Most will give a free consultation.

If one heir out of 6 refuses to sign for a house to be sold, is there a way the others can sell it without that signature?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
If there is a trustee or executor it can be sold without the signature. Otherwise you will have to go to court and get an order to "partition" the property.

When you become an administrator of an estate, how do you know your duties?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
In Lincoln County, the judge sends a very brief letter generally outlining the duties of the administrator. It barely scratches the surface. Do yourself, and the other heirs, a favor, and hire a lawyer to help you with the probate. There are five chapters of Oregon law dealing exclusively with probate, and many more statutes that affect or are affected by probate issues. After 12 years of doing probates, I still don't know it all. Doing the probate right, it is a clean and open process that ensures that the decedent's debts get paid and his or her will is carried out; doing it wrong, it can be a hopeless expensive mess. Do it right the first time.
