What did your attorney say when you asked these questions? You have asked, right?

Well, one certainly shouldn’t allow mourning the recent loss of a loved one to interfere with scurrying to get one’s hands on the spoils.

Personally I hope the girlfriend comes up with an eleventh-hour will and takes it all!

latigo,

The question was legitimate, "when can we take possession of land, the house, vehicles?". Land, houses and vehicles should be secured/possessed as soon as possible by the appropriate people (especially in Louisiana).
