Can creditors collect after your death? Must a will be probated? Can I do it with a lawyer?

Answered by attorney Norman Harry Green (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger LLP
Creditors can collect after your death. A will usually must be probated only if the estate subject to the will includes considerable real property or has a total gross value over $150,000. Yes, you can do it with a lawyer. Theoretically, you also can do it without a lawyer, but it is unwise.

How do I go about changing the name of my legal guardian on my will?

Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
You could do a codicil. Why don't you call the attorney that did it originally and see if you can't get a deal on the price.
