How can we remove a co-trustee from our mothers will?

Answered by attorney David Goldman
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of David M. Goldman PLLC
Your trust is irrevocable, you need to evaluate it under the current trust laws and the date it was formed. It may be as simple as sending them notice of removal with two independent witnesses but it may require more, you should have the documents evaluated by a Florida Estate Planning Lawyer to determine what must be done in your circumstances.

How do i get a hearing to be established as representative of an estate

C. Randolph Coleman
Answered by attorney C. Randolph Coleman (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at The Coleman Law Firm, PLLC
In Florida, a Personal Representative of a probate estate is appointed by a circuit court judge, upon the filing of  a Petition for Administration with the probate court.  The Petition for Administration must include information about the decedent, who are the parties who are interested in the estate, and the approximate value and the nature of the assets owned by the decedent that are subject to the probate proceeding.  All of the interested persons must receive notice of the filing of the Petition for Administration, and unless those interested persons have signed a waiver they must be notified by way of certified mail of the date of the hearing scheduled by the probate court to consider the Petition for Administration. Typically, the Petition for Administration must be prepared and filed by a Florida lawyer unless the proposed personal representative is also a Florida lawyer.  If a beneficiary is the sole interested person in an estate (no other heirs nor creditors), then the beneficiary may serve as the personal representative without the need to hire a Florida lawyer to represent the personal representative. If you need to file a petition for administration so you can be appointed personal representative of an estate, you should consult with a Florida lawyer who is experienced in handling probate matters.

Do i need a revision of my will which was done in r.i.?

Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
Maybe.  While most states respect a Will drafted in another state if it was properly drafted and executed under the laws of that state, Florida law may have benefits for you which were not available under the law of Rhode Island.  For example, you may be able to pass title to your home free of probate and free of Medicaid Estate Recovery in Florida.
