You are asking a question which can only be answered by reading through the laws of SOUTH CAROLINA. For South Carolina help you should post your question to the SC attorneys.
Does court or lawyer bring this up when stored in as exector about my fees
If you are the executor, you pay yourself the executor fees from the estate. The court does not pay you the fee. The court does not tell you to take the fee. That is something you need to handle with full disclosure to the beneficiaries.
okay say this woman and man were married but only his name was on the house deed. They divorced and he married another woman. They seperate and he gets back with previous wife. but never divorces the other woman. but him and the first wife get back together (even though he still married to the... Read more »
The answer to your question is very simple. With all the respect I can muster, you MUST meet with a real estate attorney to ensure that this effort is done properly. If it isn't, you will forever regret your mistake.
My mom had no will.She has no estate or assets besides her car. My sister says i can have the car. do we need to probate?
How do you plan to get title to the car? You may still have to do a small estate probate. Did your mom own any real estate? I suggest you do a consultation with an estate attorney.

Without a will, you are not entitled to any inheritance unless you have a written caregiver agreement with your sister.
You will need to hire an attorney to pursue the policy benefit. It may require a Probate or an Affidavit as who the Next of Kin are. Filing Suit for Breach of Contract and Bad Faith, with a Complaint to the Insurance Regulatory Agency for the State, may all be necessary.
If nobody claims the account within a certain period of time (which varies by state and financial institution but is usually around 3 years), then the bank will remit the funds to the state treasurer as unclaimed property.
sister’s house when he passed.Between the hospital, his daughter and his sister, no one honored his Advance Directive DNR and my POA. He never wanted to be on a respirator which they did do .His daughter went after I presented all of this and got guardianship over him through a judge that she... Read more »

My baby brother needs a vehicle. He asked my sister about moms car. And she said $1000. Is this correct.
Your sister must follow the will. If there is no Will, then the court will have to appoint an Administrator to handle the estate. The court will appoint whomever the majority of heirs selects to be administrator.
Mom’s husband is my stepdad when she passed away he is selling all assets pocketing all the money I have one sibling and we are both My mothers biological children thanks
If he is selling assets, it sounds like his name is on the accounts along with your mom. Otherwise, he would not be able to sell the assets. Therefore, you need to figure out if his name is no the accounts you are worried about.
"Heir" is deceased. Family decided widow is not a legal heir, so descended to children. Family insists property MUST be held jointly, giving control to one child, avoiding any input from other heir.
First of all, the exact language in the will controls. Usually, just one sentence from the will is not sufficient to interpret the will. That said, the spouse is an heir, and is the primary heir. Assuming multiple children exist as heirs, they all stand on equal footing and the property should be... Read more »
My supposed sister (unproven paternity) has filed a petition to be able to make decisions regarding my deceased fathers estate. She isn’t his eldest heir - and she claims she is. I am. Help. I need to file an objection ASAP
File and serve a Motion To Remove Administratrix For Cause. Cite your grounds and be prepared to be appointed the fiduciary.
I filed an Objection, however I do not have the means for an attorney. Can I withdraw my objection or does it matter at this point? Also, does that mean that there will not be any probate if she is awarded the entire estate?
She will get everything she asked for unless you fight it. There will be no probate filed if she includes all assets on the petition for year's support.
I don't know what is expected of me and I don't know what to expect. I have no access to proof or evidence because I have not been allowed in my father's home since he has passed.
You should have been conducting discovery in order to prove that the year's support is unwarranted. This will be a real trial sort of like you see on TV. You really ought to have a lawyer although at this point, it might be too late.
Mother Died , My sister produces a bogus will saying sister got everything, I file a Caveat, No outcome to my Caveat yet will has not been probated Now sister dies, what happens now??

You need to consult with a probate attorney.
Hopefully your moms estate was opened years ago. If not, need to open Dad's estate, then Mom's estate. Tuttle of property will determine who gets what.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but unless you had a lease or he left the house to you in his will or trust or some other means, you have no right to continue to stay there.
I am on probation for an accident with injures. The judge ruled that i may keep my 4th amendment.
IT comes down to the very specific facts of the plea, as probation officers often have the discretion to require screens even without a 4th Amendment waiver.
