My elderly parents drew up a new will, my dad signed it, however, my mother went into rehab for a broken hip about that time and she has not signed it

Arthur Harold Geffen
Answered by attorney Arthur Harold Geffen (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Dallas Estate Attorney
It is not clear to me whether your parents created one will which they both were supposed to sign or two separate wills - one of each of them.  If it's the first RUN to a local estate planning attorney and get it done right.  If its the second and it was not done by an attorney, again RUN to a local estate planning attorney and get it done right.   Second you may be the named executor in the will, but you have absolutely no power to do anything until such time as the will is probated and you are appointed as executor by a probate court.   Finally, most attorney's who are estate planners can arrange for tghe appropriate people to assemble in hospitals or nursing homes to facilitate the execution of wills appropriately under Texas law.  It requires more than just signing it.

If my father planned for separation, does this factor into her claim?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
No. If there was no legal separation or divorce, she is legally entitled to all of the community property and 33% to 50% of the separate property. If he had no children, she will get it all.

Can you specify in the will that your house be sold to a relative for $1.00 at the time of your death so they do not have to pay an inheritance tax?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
Are you sure your estate is even going to be taxable? And why would you sell it for $1? I think you need to speak with an estate planning lawyer, now.
