- Q. my dad died previously, now my mom has died, do i need to file 2 probates to put their house in my name,or file joint
- A: You will need to create an affidavit of death for your dad and then open a probate for your mother's estate.
- Q. My grandma didn't have a will , but she left a personal letter stating her wish. Will the letter stand in court?
- A: Your grandma left what is called a Holographic Will. California Probate Code Section 6111 lays out the requirements of a handwritten holographic will. Whether or not it was witnessed, it is best if the signature and material provisions are in her handwriting, the court must be able to determine the date of execution and it should be legible. It's also important to note that her mental capacity at the time she wrote the holographic will be important. Testamentary capacity is required for all wills. Good luck!
- Q. Can an attorney withdraw from a client without her consent in California?
- A: Yes, the attorney can file a Motion to be Relieved as Counsel from the case. The form and content of attorneys’ motions to withdraw are governed by California Rules of Court. The motion must be accompanied by a supporting declaration showing why a substitution of attorneys by consent could not be obtained. The declaration must be stated in general terms and without compromising the confidentiality of the attorney-client relationship. Hope this helps.
