Legal Question in Family Law in Missouri

Dealing with estate with no will or trust

My mother passed away recently. It was unexpected which means she had no will or trusts set up. Now I'm hearing that since she has unpaid bills and was in debt, the government can come in and take what they want. Is this true? Should i be worried that my juvenile brother and I wont get anything that was hers?

Re: Dealing with estate with no will or trust

You could not include enough facts in your question for an attorney to give you any specific advice. There is absolutely no doubt that it would be best for you to set up an appointment with an attorney to discuss all of the facts and let the attorney advise you on what needs to be done. Please consult with an attorney in your area without delay. Good luck.
