If she was not on the account the bank should not have done any of this in the first place. You should check with your bank and as well as speak with a lawyer to see where you go from here. See the Bank Manager about them getting the money back from her and sue the bank! She had no right to change anything about the account if her name was not on it.

My dads sister is on his checking account but not on the will which is to be divided between the kids. can she legally take the money for herself even if the will say to divide between the kids?

It depends on how the checking account is held. If the account is a custodial account it will pass according to the will, then she cannot take the money. However, if this is a joint checking account, in the eyes of the bank she is a co-owner and is legally permitted to take the money.

Can wife add her name to his checking account without his approval legally?

No she can't as a matter of fact without his written permission she can't even get general information about that account. This is what I found to be amazing, if this couple has a joint savings account, but the husband's name is the only one on the checking account, he is the only one that can legally transfer money from the savings account to the checking account. It also works this way if there is a joint checking account and money needs to be transferred from the joint checking account, to the savings account with only the husband's name on it, he is the only one that can move money from one account to the other. I am a bank manager and I know this is more information than you asked for, but when I have to explain this to couples, it often leads to a very heated discussion between them in my office. I live in Virginia and I can only answer for Virginia. I hope you found this answer helpful.


For a small business, what are the benefits of opening a business checking account rather than using a personal checking account?

There are several benefits from opening and maintaining a business checking account rather than using your personal checking account. When you use a business checking account you are segregating your business funds from your personal funds, thus creating better organization for your business. Also, having the business checking account will help at tax time because all your business transactions will be within the business checking account and there will be no need to sort through your personal transactions. Finally, the business checking account will allow you to use a taxpayer identification number (TIN) so the funds can legally be owned by your business, instead of using your social security number on the checking account. For a small business, opening a business checking account allows you to get more interests. In addition, transactions are processed faster compared to a personal account.
