What is the name of your state? Illinois
My brother.who was acting as executor to both my mother and father's estates, just died himself be4 the estates were closed. Now I have been appointed administrator. Letters of office arrive this week. When I try to secure assets should they all be transferred to an estate acct.? or can ownership simply be transferred on some ex. bonds, stocks etc. Since the estate was ready for closing and is another public notice required now.?Also, there are insufficient assets to probate for my brother. If there is no estate for him, and only $1200 in his checking acct., how do I respond to his creditors? Should my lawyer provide some sort of official doc.?
