The driver disclaimed responsibility for the collision claiming she was cut off by the other car. One daughter dislaimed her interest in her mother's estate.
The daughter cannot demand the money, but the executor of the estate can. This sounds like a good time for a non family member to be the executor. The loans are a part of the assets of the estate.
The bank will not pay over the account to you unless you have some type of authority from the probate court. You can check with the court to ask how you would go about claiming a small estate.
Very doubtful. The daughter is entitled to the estate if there is no will.
An estate has to be opened for your deceased daughter. That check will be deposited into the estate account. You need to consult an attorney about an estate if you haven't do so already.
I think the estate will be passed onto his daughter since the real estate entitled joint tenancy with his daughter. The surviving wife will, however, have a very strong case if the father dies intestate (without a will). Get Dad down to a good property lawyer and be prepared to spend $1000 or so. Well worth it, daughter.
Generally, the daughter would own the fee in the property subject to the mother's life estate. So the answer is yes, the property would be part of the daughter's estate.
no
Why is there a dispute? Was there a will? Was the estate of the parent probated?
No. The father's estate is responsible for his debts. If there is no estate the creditor is out of luck.
If the will provides that the estate shall be held in trust for a daughter that is called a testamentary trust. By law, the debts of the decedent will be paid first out of the assets of the estate. After the debts have been paid any remaining assets will then be transferred to the trust for the benefit of the daughter.
A mother left 20% of her estate to one son and 25% to another son. The remaining $55,000 she left to her daughter. Find the amount of the estate:
