Personal Representative bond

[raemar]

Need a bond for to become personal Rep for estate. Denied by the agency the lawyer came up with due to bad credit score. Own house (clear). If he was asking for $10k is that all I need for eventhrough estate is worth more. Will the courts be okay with this different bond. Siblings involved that have already sign a waiver/consent for me to be rep.

Do you have to be bonded to settle an estate. I am being told that you don't always need to be bonded.

If it's a requirement of the Court, then yes, the bond would be required. We may be able to help you - even with less than perfect credit. I would suggest calling our office to have a dialogue with the representative who handles this type of bond.
