Should I sign an executor form if it says the funds have already been received?

Answered by attorney David Goldman
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of David M. Goldman PLLC
You should hire a NY lawyer to advise you on this. Generally you should not sign a full release unless it specifies what you will receive or how it will be calculated.

What are the sons right on father's property if will states only one son will inherit?

Answered by attorney James T Weiner (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at James T. Weiner, P.C.
The wrinkle here is the mothers rights in the property..if papa has given all his property to one son that is his right and the other sons have no rights after he dies. However if mama retains rights in the property that is the question mama may have dower rights over real property so.

If I am named in a will and the servicer does not tell me and they keep what was given to me, is this against the law?

Answered by attorney David Goldman
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of David M. Goldman PLLC
This does not seem to make sense. Typically a servicer deals with a loan and a will deals with assets that are distributed at death.
