Q: I am the only blood child what are my rights
Being the only child can i stop the executor of my father’s estate until i can get an investigation on his death? His ex wife’s son is executor of his estate the police went out to check on his home for me and they was there emptying the home and he had not been in the ground 30 minutes. I was able to call the bank and make sure his account and credit cards was turned off but the police couldn’t do anything with him having that paperwork. Is there anything I can do
A: You need to hire a lawyer, open probate, get appointed and then open your own investigation into his death. This could be time consuming and costly, however, with guarantee as to any results.
