Legal Question in Family Law in California

Executor of an estate

My wife, Sandra, her sister Wendy Janigian passed away due to advanced cancer of the lungs on 1/30/07 at 52 years old. Wendy left no will. Both parents and older sister have passed away. Wendy was not married and never had any children nor did she adopt any children. At this time, Wendy has been cremated, and the memorial service was held on 2/3/07 at 11:30 AM in Fresno, Ca. Now we are faced with dealing with her bank, car loan, & various bills. Wendy did not own any property and lived in a low income apartment complex. How do we legally make Sandra Executor of Wendy�s estate?

If the estate is under $ 100K you need not probate it. You may get control of the bank account and other institutions via declaration with a certified copy of the death certificate. Call me directly at 1.619.222.3504.
