I would go see a Georgia estate attorney. The case need not be worth millions to contest or investigate.
There is no mortgage, my name is not on the deed, but I am the surviving spouse. There is no will. I was told that I need to get my name added to the deed, get a letter of administration or testamentary to conduct any business for the property even though I am the surviving spouse. Is this accurate... View More

You are wasting time. See an attorney and expedite the process. See a CA attorney asap.
The surviving spouse has dementia and I don't believe there was a will

If mom is unmarried and you are her only child then you are the only heir under intestate law (no will)
My father had dementia, we went to court for emergency guardianship and conservatorship. At the start I was conservator and another family member was guardian. Six months later I was also appointed guardian. They were many legal issues due to him having a spouse who was contesting everything. Lots... View More

This is a complex issue. Get a Georgia Guardianship/conservatorship attorney. The money you save will be your own.

An elder attorney can help you. The first question I would ask is what are you trying to accomplish with a power of attorney?

There are no guarantees that a petition for removal of an executor will be successful. An attorney could agree receive compensation after a successful petition (or many other arrangements other than fees due when services are provided) but in my opinion most will not.

If it has been more than 6 months since your brother took charge, you can ask for an accountant for the estate. If one is not provided or is insufficient, you can petition the probate court to remove your brother for breach of fiduciary duty. See a probate attorney for assistance.

I recommend that you ask for an accounting then if it is not provided move to remove your youngest brother as administrator of the estate. Seek the counsel of a good probate attorney.

If continuances were granted, then it would be difficult to argue that there is a problem. Motions for continuance can be objected to. Talk to your attorney.
is there a way to get legally married without having to go before a minister or judge and just sign the paperwork? my anxiety is too high to face people
answered on Mar 2, 2023
I bet if you let the clerks know your issue beforehand, at worst you and your prospective spouse could meet with the judge privately in his chambers. You might need to bring a witness.

Generally, seven years for fraud. See an attorney, there may be facts that allow more time based on the later discovery of fraud.

Your husband has predeceased his mother. What happens to husbands' inheritance will be controlled by the specific terms of the will.
It is tagged and titled in my name and the administrator of the estate is saying I stole it

If the title of the trailer is in your name, then the trailer is not in the estate. If this happened without your action, then not theft.

Only if they are lawful heirs. Lawful heirs are those who would inherit if there was no will at all.
Actual wording" in the event you voluntarily terminate your employment within twelve (12) months of your start date, you agree to repay the signing bonus in full upon your last day of employment.
