Should my husband and I get separate attorneys to do our wills?

Answered by attorney Irwin G. Klein (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Hein, Waters and Klein
That was suggested because sometimes there's a conflict between the husband and wife, making it ethically improper for the same attorney to represent both. However, it all depends upon your particular set of facts and circumstances and your individual wishes as to the preferred estate plan. You and your husband should consult with an estate planning attorney to get the answer now that the financial advisors made the suggestion.

Do we have to wait for my brother to sell my mothers home before reading the will?

Answered by attorney Donald Keith Broad (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Broad Law Firm, LLC
You should consult a probate attorney in your area. I do not believe that your brother has the ability to sell the home now, as it belongs to your mother's estate since the date of her death. In all likelihood, an estate will have to be opened, as the property will have to be transferred by a Personal Representative's Deed.
