Legal Answers
- Q. I am a personal rep for an estate with a debt of over 30k. 2 property’s unpaid taxes. Can I forfeit this land?
- A: As the trustee of this estate, your primary responsibility is to act in the best interests of the beneficiaries. While forfeiting land for debt might seem like a direct solution, it's generally not a feasible option. Forfeiture typically occurs due to illegal activity, not as a means of debt settlement.

- Q. Hi good night every day I check my asylum clock and a day add on this morning I check it and the clock remains the same

Missing an interview or court hearing can cause the clock to stop. Contact your immigration attorney to review your case in detail and provide specific advice based on your circumstances.
- Q. How do we transfer home ownership from a deceased sister to surviving siblings? Any penalties for taking on this asset?

If the will does not specifically mention the home, or there is no will, state laws will determine the distribution of her assets. There may be probate fees, capital gains tax, and estate taxes associated with the transfer.
Consult with a probate attorney who can guide you through the specific process in your state, help you understand any potential taxes, and ensure that the transfer ... Read More
