Why isn't it their job to prove that I'm NOT???????

I'm so done....

David ... been down this road.

Did you go through probate? A copy of that decree will do it.

No Probate? A will with your name on it and an affidavit from anyone else called out in the will should do it.

No Probate and no will? A notarized affidavit from a close, living relative (like a sister or brother) stating you are the only surviving child and no one else has any clainm to his estate will be a great start if not actually enough.

BUT ...

I doubt you can get it pushed through in the next couple days. Those wheels turn very slow.

I have an Heirship Affidavit filed with the county... HOWEVER... banking regulations require a letter from the Judge, either probate or a "Letter Testimtary"... either one will take months and attorneys want $5,000+ for retainer and calim that it may exceed $10,000 to continue... If a court appointed investigator can't prove that I'm the sole heir, over $85,000 will go to the State of Texas

An affidavit of Heirship is what finally got my Dad's estate off high center.

He did leave a handwritten will. But it was a small town where the local District Judge knew my Dad and family very well as did the bank president where the cash was held up.

And it wasn't for near that amount. Any of those factors could play a role.

I will say it again ... to everyone ... get your affairs in order NOW, TODAY. I promise ... you will not live forever. And it will save your children a ton of heartache and headache. Do it for the children.

ANYWAY.... Good luck guys... You are ALL Champions in my eyes....
