Subject: [WSBAPT] insolvent estate

Hello, Listmates -

I would love to talk to someone who has experience working with insolvent estates. PC has a parent who died. He left very modest assets, and debts (including to the IRS) that are quite a bit higher. There are enough assets to pay an estate attorney for the purposes of opening estate administration (no will) and using the creditor claims process to settle things in an orderly way. Administration could be somewhat involved, since it cannot be nonintervention.

Wondering if that's the best way to proceed, and have a couple of more specific procedural questions.

Thanks for your consideration, as always. I appreciate all the wisdom out there.

Sharon
