Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

my husband and i were seperated, not legally. He lived in CA and I 'm in FL. He has a girlfriend but I had to sign to have him cremated. My stepdaughter thought she could be in charge of everything else and had me sign so papers for her to be nominated as special administrater of his estate. I did but didn't have them notorized. Now she wants me to help her because she realizes she cant do a lot of stuff because we are still married. do i need to open an estate account for the checks that came to his estate? he owned a motorhome (paid for) and a truck that he owes 2200.00 on and it has a blown motor. he also owes the irs over 10,000.00. he had no will. His daughter sold all his and her belongings to pay for the cremation. also took his last pay check and spent it on whatever. she is now living with me cuz his family left her in CA with nothing. what do we do now? his daughter is sending me paper work and an 800.00 check she figured out she couldnt cash. forged his name on the motor home title and put it in her name. what should i do now?

Unfortunately, this is not a Florida probate law question but a California law matter. Recommend you contact a CA lawyer.

Contact a California Probate Attorney. That is where he resided.
