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

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Darin Christensen (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Bullivant Houser Bailey PC
If you are the personal representative, the lawyer helping you with the probate should explain your duties. Basically, they are to gather the estate assets, pay all legitimate debts, account for all expenditures, and after approval by the court pay/distribute the assets to the heirs. You should not make any distributions to yourself (or any other beneficiary) until approved by the court at the end of the probate.

What is the probate process after a parent's death?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Jeffrey R. Gottlieb (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Robert H. Glorch
It's not automatic. To set the probate process in motion, someone (e.g. the executor in the will or another family member) has to petition the court to be appointed. Normally the person who wants to file the petition will hire a probate attorney to represent them. The question of where the probate estate should be opened is an issue of fact. You mentioned that he was temporarily living in another state. Probate should be opened in the state where the decedent last had his permanent residence. So for example, if I live in Illinois, but happen to die while on vacation on Florida, my estate should be in Illinois even though I died in Florida. It's a little trickier if you're father was actually stayed in another state for a period of months, or years. It's really a question of fact and should come back to where he intended to live on a permanent basis. But this issue can be the subject of dispute at times, in part because state inheritances laws can differ.

After termination of parental rights, is the child entitled to inheritance if that parent dies without a will?

Bernard H. Greenberg
Answered by attorney Bernard H. Greenberg
Estate Planning lawyer at Kokish & Goldmanis, P.C.
No. Termination of parental rights also terminates the child's right to inherit via Colorado's law of intestacy upon the death of the parent who's parental rights were terminated.
