What is the probate process after a parent's death?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James G Maguire (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at James G. Maguire
The probate process takes place in the state where the decedent was a resident. Where he died does not really matter. If his wife is still living, probate will probably not be necessary, as long as his wife has access to their assets.

When you become an administrator of an estate, how do you know your duties?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Edward L. Armstrong (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Edward L. Armstrong, P.C.
The attorney for the estate should tell you what he expects you to do. In Missouri, the personal representative receives a commission based on the value of the property that is actually part of the probate estate. This would only include real property if it was sold. The probate estate normally (in Missouri) does not include any property that the decedent owned jointly with another person (except tenancy in common) and will not include property in trust or life insurance proceeds payable to a named beneficiary (other than the personal representative or the estate). The commission scale is as follows: 5% on the first $5,000 4% on the next $20,000 3% on the next $75,000 2.75% on the next $600,000 2% on everything over $1,000,000.

How can we see the will?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
By statute in Nevada, she has 30 days to deposit the Will with the clerk of the court. A certified letter advising her of the same, retaining a copy would be a good first step. To file a petition to have her show cause why she has not filed the Will, will have a failing fee associated with it and probably three hours of attorney's fees. Thus an estimate of $1200 to $1500 would probably be in the ballpark.
