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

Answered by attorney Joan M. Durkin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Durkin & Graham, P.C.
The court will only give you instructions on whether or not you need to file an inventory. As executor/administrator you should hire an attorney to advise you on how to proceed. The will may say whether you are to be paid or not. Often times even when the will says the executor can be paid, if the executor is also an heir and it is family, they often waive the fee. If there is no will then you are likely eligible for a statutory fee of up to 5% of the value of the estate (ie. the proceeds that you collect from selling assets).

What can I do to get my mother's remains from my grandmother?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
I am going to need more information on this. My suspicion is that you can file an action in probate court to have the remains returned to the family. However, I need to know if there's a will, if all children agree, etc.

Is an un-notarized will valid?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
It is not necessary that a will be notarized; it is CRUCIAL that it be witnessed by two people, who both are in the room and see the testator (and each other) as the will is signed. If there is no affidavit of witnesses to the will (which is the piece that gets notarized) then at least one of the witnesses must be available to come into court and testify that he or she witnessed testator signing the will.
