What is the name of your state? Wisconsin
My fiance' and her sister have just sold thier recently deceased fathers home.
There was NO will, he passed suddenly. They do have an lawyer helping them however the only assets thier father had was the house. The question is, after the sale of the house, and all other obligations(bills, taxes, and other debts) are paid, can the remainder of the money be split immediatly? There are no other obligations except for the mortage and cc bills. Thier lawyer told them it would be 90 days. This seems HIGHLY unlikely concedering that thier father only had ONE asset and no other bills. The estate is extremely small and niether my fiance' or her sister are arguing over any thing. It is just a simple matter of her sister(she is the personal rep.)paying the bills and splitting the remainder.
If there is anyone with information on this matter, PLEASE RESPOND QUICKLY!! The remainder of the house sale is not alot but it is needed!
Thank you
