Legal Answers
2 Questions Answered
Q. Why would it take months for probate to b over?deceased had filed bankruptcy
A: Hello,

Generally settling an estate takes at least six months. Mostly it takes this long, even if not much else is happening, because anyone who has a claim against the estate has six months to make a claim, after which all claims are barred.

You will probably want to talk with an attorney to get answers specific to your questions.

Good luck!

A: Hello,

Sorry you're having such a hard time. In Arkansas you have five years after a person dies to settle the estate.

You should contact a lawyer because you have described a couple issues that will need to be taken care of with precision.

Good luck!
