Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in New York
My Father died intestate in the state of new york. We retained an attorney and I am the administor of his estate. My sister and I are in agreement to how the estate should be handled.We have a brother who has been estranged for 21 years who cannot be found and if he was, would be unco-operative.
How do I handle this? How can I continue with the closing of my father's estate. What do you recommend?

Your attorney should handle this problem. Diligent effort must be made to find your brother or he must be served by publication.
