Attorney answers:
How do I get a copy of a replaced power of attorney and possible new will of my elderly parents? Consultation cost w/attorney?
Lets separate your question into two parts. First ther is the issue of your mother's estate. If your mother gave your sister a power of attorney while she was alive, it could only be used by your sister during your mother's lifetime. the power ends with her death. If she was appointed personal representative of your mother's estate, then any information about assets that were probated is public and you can get that from the clerk of court. Possibly at their website. With respect to...

Attorney answers:
How can I get access to the Guardianship Account left by my mother for me before she died?
You need to get the documents filed with the court regarding the handling of any money left for you. It is possible that you were entitled to everything already. But it is also possible that your mother left your aunt as trustee of a trust left for you that continues well into the future. Your aunt should provide this to you. If she doesn't, as beneficiary, you have a right to know the terms of the trust with respect to you. The guardianship papers can be obtained from the Queens county...

FL Administrator of an Estate
Your credit cannot be affected by your role as an administrator(personal representative of your father's estate).

Attorney answers:
My parents have passed and there is no will and my sister wants to force me out.
Since there is no will, if the property was in your parents name and not your sister's(which seems to be the case since she needs you to sign a deed) then it would pass to you and your sister through the intestate probate process. DO NOT SIGN OVER THE HOUSE. You do not own it yet. You need an attorney to open an estate, appoint a personal representative, and distribute the property which possibly means selling it so you and your sister can go your own ways. If you need any further...

Attorney answers:
Can i create an estate for my deceased mother so i can pursue the entity responsible for her death?
The short answer is yes. This is a very common occurrence in wrongful death and malpractice situations. You need to contact an attorney to handle the lawsuit and an attorney to handle the probate matter. Often, this is done by one law firm. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. I am local to Fort Lauderdale. good Luck

Attorney answers:
My father has passed and my sister is personal rep. does she have to give us a copy of the will
The probate of a will is a public process. As soon as she has retained a lawyer, the will gets filed in the county in which your father lived. You can go online and view it in many counties or go to the clerk's office and make a copy. An adult child has no specific legal rights with respect to a deceased who disinherits them in a will. If you are a beneficiary in the will you will be contacted by the attorney who will inform you of your inheritance. Good luck.
