Hi Moms,
Can I please get any info possible on going to probate court, attorneys, do's and don'ts, absolutly anything. I also need one of those people that will come into your home and give an estimate of what old dishes and furniture is worth.
I am an attorney and have dealt with probate issues for years (I am mortgage and title attorney). Not sure what your questions are....if you want to email me, we can chat and I will give you my phone number. [email protected]
probate is really pretty easy the courts will set all of dates etc. for an attorney try don steigal (hope that is the correct spelling) he charges 150.00 /hr. if you need the number i can get it an older gentleman but really knows his stuff. as far as furniture and other things go don't know how much you have long story short we have a ton of nothing and have tried one garage sale and will NOT do that again but we are to the point of having an estate sale. here is a name of the person that we are using rick weber 682 597 1266 he also does appraisals or check the web site 24/7 estate sales and maybe they can lead you in the right direction. also one thing that our attorney told us that is someome was on the bank accounts as long as they were listed as joint survior you do not need to list that as an asset of the estate, jsut something to think about,
good luck
