Wills

Hello, my question is what effect does a recent P.O.D. have on a prexisting will. Thank You.

proposal

My dad died in 2003 unexpected my 2 sisters and I were in his will which was divided evenly, his mother (my grandmother) died in 2006 I have her will from my dads things him and my aunt were executors of her will which is still in probate because her house and land haven't sold yet my question is what happens to my dads percent of my grandmothers will are my sisters and I automatically get my dads percent ?

contest a will

i am the exceutor of my parents estate and want to sell their house for $150,000. my brother and sister want to hold on to the house and sell it for $180,000 to $200,000 in 2 or 3 years when the market is better. the house was appraised at $153,000 in march 2007. do they have any grounds to contest my decision?

deceased co-representitive

My grandmother left my father and my uncle as co-representitives. My father in the mean time had passed away. Would that leave my uncle sole representitive or would that pass along to his wife who he was married to him at the time of his death and had not remarried at the time of my grandmothers death or to me?

Life Estate

If I sell my portion of a life estate,

is the life estate until I die, or the new owners death?

Person Representative/Co-Trustee

Being I am entitled to the fees for both of these positions. My next question would be how and when do I tell the Co-Trustee that I will be claiming my right to the Personal Representative fee and how do I go about claiming my right to this fee? Is there something that the other Co-Trustee can do to prohibit me from claiming this fee? This Co-Trustee will not be pleased about me claiming the PR fee and if possible will fight me over this fee.

Will

Does renounciation of assets only apply to the executor of a will? or can anyone renounce a Will?

probate

My wife and I have reciprical wills, with our children as alternate heirs,but we own everything jointly. Q: does the will of the first spouse to die have to be probated? Or only the will of the surviving spouse have to be probated. We are Florida residents, and own no out-of-state property.

Living will or simple will

I am trying to help my father figure out if all we need is a living will or do we also need a simple will too. We just want this as easy as possible and we don't want to have to probate when he passes.Thanks.

pet adoption, age descrimination?

I volunteer at a non-profit cat shelter in FL. Since cats can easily live for up to 20 years we have to consider an adopter's age. A man recently filed a complaint with the BBB citing age descrimination. We aren't selling a product. The adoption fee is a donation. we feel that it would be negligent of us to adopt a kitten to an elderly man in poor health. He wasn't interested in any of our adults. Do we have a leg to stand on?
