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

Eric James Smith
Answered by attorney Eric James Smith (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
Your father does not have an estate unless he is dead or has been declared incapacitated by a court. You can act as the administrator of an estate from out of state if you name an attorney as your local agent. The court may prefer a local administrator, if one is available and not disqualified to serve.

If my father passed away in one state and I live in another and he had no property of assets, what do I do as his legal executor?

Melissa Ann Botting
Answered by attorney Melissa Ann Botting (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Melissa A. Botting
He passed away in California, California law will control. In Texas you would have a problem. Why did you think you were his legal executor if there was no will or probate proceeding appointing you? While people do start collecting the assets of the deceased right away (frequently to pay final expenses), until appointed, you do not have the right to do so. Taking the assets may be theft. You may need to get all of your receipts together to demonstrate where the money went. You will have a problem since you found cash in the hoard. You will not be able to prove the amount you found. Your step siblings may always hold out that it was more than it really was.

What can I do if my dad's second wife is making it hard for me to get his will?

Answered by attorney Isaac David Shutt (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Shutt Law Firm, PLLC
It's unclear from your question whether the proper jurisdiction is NY or TX. If the proper jurisdiction is Texas, then you can use Texas Probate Code 75 to compel the person with possession of the Will to turn it over to the probate court. You will need to consult with a local probate attorney to assist you in getting started with this.
