Does probate apply to this situation and who is responsible?

Answered by attorney Charles Richard Perry (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Charles R. Perry
I do not see where probate is necessary, as there do not seem to be any assets to distribute and no large liabilities to take care of. That, however, is based strictly on what you write there could be other assets or liabilities that change this analysis. The mother may well have claims against the relatives who locked her out of the mobile home. Those, however, would not be part of a probate and should be pursued direction by the mother.

Who is liable for the estate if my father dies?

Answered by attorney Todd S Rayan (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Olson, Althauser, Samuelson & Rayan, LLP
His Estate would be liable for any outstanding debts. The joint ownership accounts are non-probate assets and would normally pass to your sister. However, if the estate is insolvent, meaning there are not enough assets to pay all of the liabilities, a creditor may seek to recover from the non-probate assets.
