Once a will has been made, can the other spouse change it?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
You need an attorney to review all of the paperwork. If the home was left to her in his Will or if she was a joint tenant she could leave it to whomever she choose. If there was a trust the answer may be different. I believe that you need to hire an attorney to review the Wills and other paperwork, titles, etc. to advise you.

How do I get half of whatever money my family member left?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark Schaefer (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Elder Law Office of Mark Schaefer PC
You used the term administrator, so I assume your father or brother died without a will. You will need to contact a probate attorney to file a petition for an accounting. Unfortunately, there is no standard form for that petition. Your sister will then have to present what she received as administrator, what she paid out, and what she has distributed to heirs. If you agreed to a waiver of bond when she was appointed, then you should not delay. If you get a judgment against her you will then have to try to collect on it. If she was required to post a bond, then you have some security there as long as you have not agreed to allow her to be discharged and relieved of liability. Contact a probate attorney promptly.

Does property go to probate if it’s already in my name or just the other items stated in the will?

Answered by attorney Sabina Tomshinsky
Estate Planning lawyer at Home Town Law, P.A.
No, you do not have to do anything with property that is already in your name; you usually open a probate action to transfer property per the will or intestacy laws that is held in the decedent's name. Also, please be aware that the power of attorney expires upon the death of the principal.
