You should definitely go to the funeral of a member of your family, especially if they are an immediate family member. It is also a good time to see a lot of your family you may not of seen in a while.

Of course they can.
Eh, what are you trying to prove or get out of?
The insurance funds and estate assets should cover the funeral expenses. You need to contact attorney who is probating the will to insure you are reimbursed for your expenses. You can make a claim against the estate just as long as you have all receipts to make it legal! * It would appear that the deceased's estate has already been probated or assets and property that were distributed were those that were exempt from probate procedure, either via a Will or probate succession laws. If that is the case, the only option for recovering monies spent for funeral and other costs would be for the injured party to bring suit against those adult family members who would have been involved. If the estate has not been closed by probate procedure it may be possible to make a claim, the deciding factor is the time that has expired between the filing of the estate and the filing of the claim of money owed. Be advised, the law does not require surviving children or family members to pay funeral expenses. The executor of the estate should have been responsible for the matter unless another family member volunteered to take the responsibility. It is an arbitrary choice, and if an agreement was not made with other individuals to share the expenses, then the plaintiff in a suit is not likely to prevail.

The assets are transferred to the closest family member (if any). Most people have people whom they do not consider family, but in some cases this can be the person to whom the assets are transferred. In the case of a married person, the assets would be transferred to their spouse.
There is usually a gathering of friends and family at a rented hall or at the home of a family member.
The probate court will appoint an executor. It is often a family member or a neutral party.
no!
To tell an estranged family member about a death you should be straight forward. Do not wait, give them the chance to go to the funeral if they want. Be willing to listen to them to, because you may be the only person who does.
