I was with my man for 14 years he just passed away am I entitled to anything?

Possibly. You can claim a common law marriage if: 1. You were both 18+ 2. You agreed to be married (this can be inferred) 3. You held yourselves out to the public as married (i.e. he introduced you as his wife) 4. You were not already married. You would then have a claim to the community property portion of his estate. This is a fairly complicated proposition. Get legal help.

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

Answered by attorney Charles Richard Perry (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Charles R. Perry
Yes. There is no law requiring that the executor or administrator of the estate be a California resident. The Court will look at the directive in your father's will in order to determine who should be the executor; and will look at the controlling California statute as to who should be the estate's administrator if there is no will. You should contact a probate lawyer in California to assist you in this matter, and provide you with guidance as to whether it is appropriate for you to be named in charge of your father's estate. The fact that you do not live in California, however, is not an automatic barrier here.

Does the family inure the debt the father made without their knowledge once he dies?

Answered by attorney Geoffrey N Germane (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Kirton & McConkie A Professional Corporation
If the debt was in his name alone and was not secured by collateral, the debt becomes a debt of his estate, and not of his heirs. Any property owned by his estate would be potentially subject to satisfying the debt.
