Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Massachusetts

I have been granted voluntary administrator status for my recently deceased brother. He had a small amount of money in a bank account and a paid for car. I can pay some of his debts from the account but 2 questions: Can i dispose or grant the vehicle to his daughter and what do I do I tell the creditors who will not get payment due to the limited amount in his account?

Creditors need to file a claim within a year in order to get paid. I would suggest you contact an attorney to see about what needs to be paid, and what doesn't. There are certain steps you need to take in order to properly administer an estate, and avoid paying certain charges.
