One of two siblings dies…are the children of the sibling that died entitled to their father’s portion of his father’s (their grandfather) estate?
answered on Jun 3, 2021
I am sorry for your loss. I have assumed in your set of facts that your father died prior to the grandfather. If the grandfather had a will, his estate passes as provided in the will. The will must be admitted to probate to be effective. If he died with no will, the children of the deceased child... Read more »

The taxes are a liability of the estate not the executor. When a new executor is appointed, she would be responsible for paying the taxes, but they are not her individual liability.
Attorney withdrew in 2010 and the family has never hired another lawyer and how to get a title or deed if executor is deceased
answered on May 10, 2021
You should hire another attorney who can have another executor appointed and have the case concluded. Because this involves real estate, you will have to have a final decree in the estate for the heir/devisees or their assignees to get good title to the property. Unless there is a sale of the...

The affidavit of heirship is for severed mineral interests and is a method to obtain marketable title if the affidavit... Read more »

It's likely that this is something going on in his father's estate proceeding. There are a number of reasons that the property is being sold. He should hire an attorney to find out what is going on and to protect his interest.

It is not clear what your question is. What kind of policy, what is the designation, and what are you using it for?
Passed away as well. The law firm told me that the attorney put the wrong legal description on her mineral rights. Is the law firm responsible for correcting this for me?
answered on Mar 2, 2021
The liability of the law firm could depend on a number of factors that are not revealed in your question: The nature of the mistake and how it occurred. Any complicity in the mistake by your mother. How long ago this happened. The relationship between the firm and the attorney. If you... Read more »

Well first, the house is sold and there is nothing to do about that assuming it was sold to someone not related. As far as your portion of the sale/estate, this would have all been completed during the probate procedure. If your sister did not fulfill her legal obligation then you 'may or... Read more »

Without the assistance of a competent attorney then you could be waiting a long time for any recovery from your mothers estate. I am not saying just give up, but you will need wise counsel in resolving your issue.

You would need to research the land records covering the land, which are found in the county clerk's office of the county where the lands are located. Oil and gas titles can be very complicated. You could hire an oil and gas attorney or an oil and gas landman to do the search.
The deceased journal consists of the owners name and has dates. Then also the journal is about their everyday life and ideas.

It is not likely, but it is theoretically possible. Take the journal to a probate attorney to be reviewed.
The grandparents are taking things from the house and they say the house is theirs just because they have the deed (that isn't in their name). My boyfriend just turned 18 and has no idea what to do or who to talk to. Also the property value is under 50,000

In a very vague answer, anything that is not specified in the will goes to the estate for distribution. If the RV is not listed anywhere, then the RV would pass to your mother as the surviving spouse due to it being marital property. There are always exceptions to the general rules and you should...
