How long do I have to carry out the terms of a will after the death?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
You could start probate the next day if you like; although to get anything effective done you will need death certificates, and that takes a week to ten days. There effectively is no latest date. The probate gets more and more difficult (read "expensive") the longer you wait. I normally tell people not to do anything until after the funeral. Then get right on it.

How can I give custody of my house to my kids?

Brian Chew
Answered by attorney Brian Chew
Estate Planning lawyer at OC Wills and Trust Attorneys
Rather than give your home to your kids, you may want to consider having an irrevocable trust drafted on your behalf and place your home into the trust. Your children can be made to be the trustees of the trust. While they will be in charge of the house, you may retain certain right to the home. Also, if the receive the house after you pass from the trust, they will likely not have to pay any taxes when they sell the house. However if you give them the house, they ma have to pay a capital gains tax on any profit made from the sale of the house. The profit from the sale will be determined by home much the home sold for less how much you paid for it when you originally bought it. Talk to a qualified attorney on how an irrevocable trust can help your situation.

Does my ex husbands wife have the authority to ask for my childrens birth certificates?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
I can't imagine what reason she'd have for wanting the birth certificates. The death certificates would help her establish who are your ex's heirs at law. All of this is public record, except that she'd have to pay money to get them from the state's Vital Records office.
