Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Maryland
I paid for funeral cost, but in the Will it specified that someone else was suppose to pay for all funeral expense. Am I entitled to get my monies back?

It would be unusual for a will to specify that another person will pay funeral expenses although you may mean that such expenses are to be born by the estate. You will likely want to submit a claim to the personal representative for any funeral expenses. If the estate does not have enough money to pay all claims the law has an order of priority for repayment.
