What are my rights as the heir to my grandfather's estate?

Eric James Smith
Answered by attorney Eric James Smith (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
Unless your grandfather had a will which had specific gifts to you, you are not entitled to anything of your grandfather's in your own right as he predeceased your father. However, you do have a right to probate your father's estate and possibly make a claim on your grandfather's estate in the administration of your father's estate. The real problem is the time that has elapsed. Applications for traditional probate must be made within 4 years of the death of the decedent - your choices in how to act on your father's estate are now limited.

How do turn over our share of land to our brother?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
Speak directly with an attorney. You will either have to go through probate or a summary probate to transfer the land and a probate attorney can help you do that.

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

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Charles Richard Perry (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Charles R. Perry
Yes. There is no law requiring that the executor or administrator of the estate be a California resident. The Court will look at the directive in your father's will in order to determine who should be the executor; and will look at the controlling California statute as to who should be the estate's administrator if there is no will. You should contact a probate lawyer in California to assist you in this matter, and provide you with guidance as to whether it is appropriate for you to be named in charge of your father's estate. The fact that you do not live in California, however, is not an automatic barrier here.
