What is the name of your state? West Virginia, but father died in Florida.
My father, who I have been estranged from my entire life (his choice) and who barely ever paid child support (a few years at most), died recently. He didn't name my sister and I the benefactor of anything. His life insurance policy was given to his brothers and sisters. He has a 401K/profit sharing account, which his brothers and sisters tried to cash to no avail. We have been informed that we can have the money (My sister and I). If we take this money, and it turns out there is no executor of his estate, can we be liable in the future to pay any of his bills??
