Yes, you can do that. Since you are the joint holder of the bank accounts of your mother and father, you can very well withdraw funds from the account. However it is better to provide your parents' death certificate to the bank and convert them into single holding accounts because your parents are deceased and they can no longer use the accounts.

Can I as executor and having joint account with my mother write checks to my siblings without a lawyer since my mother lives with me and has no debts?

Your status as executor has no bearing as to whether you have access to your mother's finances while she is living. Additionally, whether you live with your mother or whether she has debts or not has no bearing as to whether you have access to her finances. What you need is a power of attorney. That being said, if you are also named on your mother's bank account as an account owner, then you have full access to write checks on that account just like she does. Be careful that you are not listed as TOD (Transfer on Death) or POD (Pay on Death) though instead of an actual account owner. Those who are listed as TOD or POD have no right to the account funds until the account owner dies.


If your husband was his deceased father's bank account nominee how do you recover the account funds?

My parents put their house up as collateral on a business loan for my brother. The loan is in default. If my father dies how will the loan be satisfied?

If your father is the only one who co-signed for the loan, and the title to the property is vested in both of their (your mother and father) names "as joint tenants"...upon your father's death, the title automatically belongs to your mother and she becomes the sole owner to the property. Since she did not co-sign (if in fact, she did not), the bank cannot run after the property as it automatically became your mother's property, however, if your mother co-signed as well...she will have no way out, but be forced to pay your borther's debt or collect by forcing your mother to sell the house, etc...

Can you use your deceased mother's bank account?

Not unless you were also named as a joint owner of the account. If you and your mother had a joint account the full ownership passed to you upon her death. If the account was your mother's sole account you would need to forge her name to make any withdrawals. That is not legal. The account is part of her estate.
