Would having a possible credit card judgment pending affect her chances of getting the reverse mortgage?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
In theory, it shouldn't, as judgment liens typically don't attach to homestead property. In practice, title companies are reluctant to issue title insurance (required for a reverse) if there are judgments. You might consider trying to settle the judgment lien prior to applying for the reverse.

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

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
Yes. You will have to file for probate where your father lived, and submit to the jurisdiction of that state's courts.

Can I change the locks of a home to a person who just died and has no will?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
If you are not a blood relative of this person, and his family is now coming to assert ownership of his property and belongings, you cannot legally change the locks of his home. Even without a will, a person's belongings pass by a law known as intestate succession, so the relatives coming out of the woodwork have a legal claim to the residence as well as any other items of value he left behind. They can assert this claim by filing a small estate affidavit in the county where your friend died.
