Does the family inure the debt the father made without their knowledge once he dies?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Isaac David Shutt (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Shutt Law Firm, PLLC
No, only his estate is liable for his debts. None of the family will be liable for the debts, unless someone co-signed on the debt.

If one heir out of 6 refuses to sign for a house to be sold, is there a way the others can sell it without that signature?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Norman Harry Green (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger LLP
Yes. If the house is still in probate, the ordinary and usual way to sell is for the personal representative (administrator) to petition the court for approval of the sale. Consent of all 6 not required. If it already is owned of record by 6 owners, they can file a suit for partition, and the court will order sale.

What is the probate process after a parent's death?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
No, probate is not automatic. Venue is appropriate in the state where the decedent was domiciled at the time of death. There can be issues in determining which state that is. Once that has been clarified, an interested party files an application or petition for probate. If your father died in another state and there are no assets there, you can open probate in Michigan, in the county where there are assets. If he was married, the wife would have priority for appointment as personal representative. Feel free to visit my website. I have a detailed description of the probate process posted there. I am very sorry for your loss.
