Executor of will stold the money left by the deceased, what can I do about it?

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
i'm sorry this has happened to you.  You can file a complaint in the court of the county in which the will was probated.  Ask to have the executor removed, and claim breach of fiduciary duty.  you may be able to track down the funds that were stolen, or put liens against things that were purchased with the funds.  If the executor was required to post a post, you can file a claim against the bonding company.

I have a 5 year old quit claim deed, signed and notorized, but not yet recorded...Does Medicaid Look Back start on the date the deed was notarized...

Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
A deed has no legal effect until it is delivered.  Recording is the best evidence of recording.  If the recording date falls withing the 60 month Medicaid lookback period, the transfer might well be seen as a transfer for less than fair market value in an attempt to qualify for Medicaid. Please also note that in most states a quitclaim deed does not transfer title.  It is merely a public acknowledgement of an agreement to quit making whatever claim the maker may have to land, often to an easement over land.
