The will must be presented to probate court for "allowance" and to have an executor appointed. Once the will has been filed you will receive notice if you are named in the will as a beneficiary.

How do you know if you are in someones will?

You don't unless they tell you. There is no requirement for them to tell you. When the will is brought to probate after the testator's death, the court requires that all beneficiaries of the will be notified. Until then, you simply don't know.


How can you find out if somebody has left you something in his will?

If the individual is still living, unless you ask them and they agree to answer, there is no requirement that they reveal this information in advance and no legal way for you to pursue it. However, after the person is deceased and the will is presented for probate, if you are named as an heir you must, by law, be notified.


When does the executor need to tell you if you are named in the will?

The executor typically informs beneficiaries of their inclusion in the will after the testator has passed away and the will has been filed for probate. This process can vary by jurisdiction, but beneficiaries should generally be notified within a few months of the testator's death.

Must a 14 yr old parents be notified if they want to leave home and not have parents notified?

How long after a person died will his executor who is his solicitor let you know?

This can vary from immediate notification to never being notified at all, and it may have much to do with how close, or 'in-touch' your family is. If the Executor of the deceased's estate finds you are named an heir in the will you must, by law, be notified, but (in the US) if you are not provided for in the will, there is no legal rquirement that you be notified at all.
