Under the law, once a will has gone through probate and executor is appointed, should this be sufficient to access bank accounts?

David L. Leon
Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
It depends on the signature card of the account. If the account is Joint Tenancy with Rights of Survivorship (JTWROS) or Payable on Death (POD) or Transfer on Death (TOD) or has a beneficiary designation, then a death certificate should suffice. In all other cases, an order from the probate court or letters testamentary / administration would be needed. In most cases, it's just easier to give the bank what they want for their internal bookkeeping purposes (in this case a death certificate) versus trying to explain to their staff why they don't need it.

Can my husband put his name on the deed of his brother's condo if he has a POA over his assets?

Whether he can do this or not depends on what the power of attorney says. Most POAs say the attorney in fact cannot benefit himself/herself. You need to have an attorney review the power of attorney so your husband doesn't get himself in legal trouble.

Can I get control over my father's estate if I live in a different estate than he does?

Living outside Maryland does not prevent you from serving as personal representative of a Maryland estate, but you will have to designate a Maryland resident as your resident agent.
