I am the head of estate for my mother am I able to get in her checking account to pay the final bills?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
You would need to be appointed by the probate, have letters issued and once that occurs the bank would give you access. There is much more involved in handling a probate. You should speak with an estate attorney where your mother resides about your duties. In Nevada, you would have an obligation to provide notice to all known creditors and publish to potential unknown creditors. Again a consultation with an attorney would be a worthwhile meeting.

More information is necessary. If this was truly a gift , then your ex has no interest in the property. If he retained an interest, then it was no a gift. He may have added your name to the title. That is different. In that case, you need to work something out with him. Alternatively, one of you can go to court to have the property partitioned. In that case, the judge could order one of your to buy out the other or for the property to be sold.

No. It will go through probate and depend on your state's probate intestate laws (dying without a will). If he has a will then it will go thru probate and then to you. Put your affairs in order.
