Can I sue someone for expenses paid for a funeral if I live in a different state?

Normally you have to sue someone in the particular location where a particular action happened. A funeral is another story. Normally a funeral comes out of the estate of the deceased. That happens before the estate is divided after the estate is probated. Normally the contract for payment for funeral expenses is signed at the morticians office before the funeral. That legal document would be the basis for your lawsuit. You can check with a local lawyer in your area, but you might need to go to the place where the contract for payment for the funeral was signed in order to sue someone.
