Could he, as a third party, delay the proceedings with a caveat or lawsuit if he believed he was entitled to compensation from the deceased?

Answered by attorney Peter David Ticktin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at The Ticktin Law Group
This is certainly an interesting question. The first question would be where had the deceased lived If she was in Florida then what I suggest will apply, if she was from another state, or her property was in another state I would suggest following those rules. In Florida once a person has passed the executor must publish a notice to creditors so that a creditor may have a right to claim against the Estate. The creditor only has 30 days to submit a claim, or the claim will be deemed waived. Possibly your character could submit a a claim against the estate for money owed. Then to gum up the system, he doesn't have a contract or bill to prove the allegation, but simply a letter written by him (or her) stating he is owed the money. If the claim is disputed then the Court's will need a hearing on the issue, which delays estate proceedings. Good luck, keep us posted.

I have just found a last will and testament that says I am the executrix of my parent estate is this all I need for a lawyer?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
Are you parents deceased? Is it an original? You will also need certified copies of their death certificates. Does the will mention a separate trust? If so, you need that too.

Can my father's wife get all his belongings even if she was left one dollar in his will?

Answered by attorney Richard J Kaplan (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Richard J. Kaplan, P.A.
Unless there is a anti-nuptial agreement in place, a deceased spouse can no longer disinherit a surviving spouse in Florida anymore. So the $1 possibly won't work. She would be entitled to at least 30% of his worldwide assets, with set offs of assets that may have been jointly owned between them or she received as a distribution from him. This includes assets that were jointly owned with someone else or payable to someone else (like in life insurance).
