If Dad had no assets Do you need probate?
Not if there are no assets at all. A will is simply a document that transfers a persons property to other persons after death. If there are no assets to be transferred, then there is nothing for the will to do.
An heir to an estate is usually the spouse, children, or next of kin. The heir may also be named in a will. If their is none of these options, then the estate will go to the state.

In most cases the debts of the deceased are the responsibility of the estate.

Can a creditor collect without a judgment?
Plain and simply yes a creditor can collect without a judgment as this is the whole reason that you were granted the credit from them in the first place because you made an agreement between the creditor and yourself that they would lend you so much on the agreement by you that you would pay back a minimum ammount each week or month or whatever you and the creditor agreed upon and so when you fail to pay as per agreement then the creditor has to apply for a judgment against you and depending on which kind of judgment is granted to them they may either be given the right to cease the property back if it is a car or an item and then theyre allowed tosell that in order to get their money back which you have failed to pay or they may be permitted to acquire your property and hold onto it until the debt owed by you is paid in full in which case it then will be returned to you and not before so the answer to your question is yes the creditor may collect your agreed payments but no they cannot cease the goods back without a court judgment being filed against you and granted in their favour.
My father's estate has been settled and now a large bill has arrived. Am I responsible for it?
First of all, a lot depends on the state and jurisdiction. Generally, though, if the estate was duly probated and notice was published there was a period during which a creditor could make a claim, otherwise a claim by the creditor is barred. In such legal matters however, it is always a good idea to consult with the attorney who handled the estate.
In general, a person with a duty to support another (such as a spouse) may be liable for the spouse's "necessaries," which could include medical bills. I'm not sure about the specifics of law in Tennessee.

What is an IOU and what does it need to make it binding?
i believe it is a promise to pay someone for something/anythings between 2 or more people. To make it binding in some courts the verbal agreement with the intent to repay/replace whatever is being borrowed is good enough, but i would want it in writing if it was something very important to me i was lending. once its in writing its considered a contract. you can write a contract/iou/promise to pay on a cocktail napkin, a piece of a paper bag etc. As long as the signature of the person promising to pay back signs and dates it and a brief discription of the terms of the iou should be included also. U must be able to use the document to prove in court the person showed intent to repay/replace by giving you said document.
