Would my mother's debt and lawsuit be charged on me if I probate her assets?

Answered by attorney Douglas A Tull (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Douglas A. Tull, P.C. Attorney at Law
No, but her debt could be a claim against her estate - in Michigan, creditor claims are next to the last for payment - but come before distributions to beneficiaries. There are expenses and certain allowances which take priority - including estate administrative expenses, funeral and burial expenses, allowances for minors and surviving spouses (among others), and income tax and related federal and state tax claims. You should consult with an attorney to see where your situation fits within these rules.

How do I attain a copy of my mother's will?

Christine James
Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
The will is technically supposed to be lodged with the court. You can check there. Often times people do not do that which would make it very difficult, absent finding a family member who has a copy, to get your hands on it - especially 9 years later. Check the court and if you cannot find it there, send the letter without it.
