You must petition the probate court to be appointed the administrator of his estate if he had no will. If no one objects, the court will provide you with the authority to pay his debts and distribute his assets according to the state laws of intestacy under the court's supervision.

You should consult with an attorney who specializes in probate if there are assets. The administrator is personally liable if they make errors while settling the estate. Most people need the assistance of an attorney when administering an estate. The attorney could review your situation, determine what your options are and provide assistance.

What can you do to stop your brother from continuing to use your deceased father's credit cards?

It depends on whther or not your brother is an authorized user. In which case the company would come after him for the money. I will assume, for the moment that he isn't. In most states this is considered fraudulent use of a credit card and a criminal as well as civil offense. I don't understand why this was not cleared up in Probate, or by whomever handled your granmother' affairs after her death. You can call or write the credit card company and inform them of the situation. They might ask for a death certificate to close the account. There are other options such as contacting the Elder Abuse organization in your area who should refer you to someone who can give you legal assistance. Please feel free to email me if I can help you further.

If you are the beneficiary of your father's life insurance can your brother get the money?

Not unless your Father split it up. If he has you listed, the money will go to you. Be sure to remember, any debts, funeral costs etc. will still need to be paid even if your Father passed away. * Death benefits from life insurance belong solely to the named beneficiary. The benefits are not subject to probate procedure nor can they be attached by creditors for debts belonging to the deceased. Surviving family members are not responsible for any debts of the deceased unless they have accepted that responsibility in a written contract or are a joint holder of the debt. The exception in some instances would be a surviving spouse when the couple resided in a community property state at the time of death.

You are a sister to a deceased brother can you receive benefits for his daughter placed in your care through the court system?

If the daughter of the deceased was an heir in his will, AND she is a minor, the court would have, or will, name a guardian to safeguard her financial interests. While you may be declared her guardian for her care and upbringing, it does no necessarily follow, that you would be named her financial guardian as well. You could, but you may not be.
