What should we do if we can’t find our mother’s will?

Randall C. Romei
Answered by attorney Randall C. Romei (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Ashcraft & Ashcraft, Ltd.
If there is no will then your mother's assets are distributed in accord with the statute on descent and distribution. If the deceased had no spouse but did have children when she died all of her estate is evenly divided amongst her children, your mother's house included. A probate will have to be opened to transfer the house to the new owners. If the house was titled in joint tenancy then it would transfer directly to the surviving joint tenant without probate.

Is my father's estate liable if he owes money from her mother and brother?

Estate Planning lawyer at Mains Law Office
No, based on the facts as you stated them, the statute of limitations for personal debts has passed. It is 4 years in California so he should have attempted to collect from your father over a decade ago.

Can I transfer the property I received as a beneficiary of a trust directly to my own trust in California?

Generally it will go to you first and then you can transfer it to your trust. Some trustees will transfer it to your trust directly.
