[WSBAPT] Open a probate or not

[nestor at pplsweb.com]

Here is my nickel's worth.  

 

Since as a creditor of the estate the motorcyclist will require notice, I
would notify the insurance carrier and open the estate.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Open a probate or not

 

HI All:

 

I am trying to wrap my head around a situation.  The decedent had a reverse
mortgage whereas they MAY be 100k after all is said and done; depending on
the market.  The issue is that the decedent was in an auto accident about 18
months ago.  It appears it was a significant accident [the other person was
on a motorcycle and had head injuries].  The decedent was sited for what
that is worth. 

 

What is the best strategy........open an  probate and then discuss with her
insurance the status of the accident.  Try to talk to the insurance now; no
guarantee they will speak to us as no PR yet.  In the last scenario we then
let the cat out of the bag that decedent has passed.  

 

My gut says open the probate and investigate more.  Any insight?
