Descargo de responsabilidad: Las financiaciones y adelantos legales para consumidores no son préstamos según las leyes de financiamiento aplicables. Los productos de Rockpoint son sin recurso, lo que significa que si no ganas tu caso, no tienes que reembolsarnos. Recibir apoyo financiero en relación con un caso legal suele (y con frecuencia de manera incorrecta) denominarse “préstamo para demanda” o “préstamo”. Por lo tanto, para facilitar las referencias de búsqueda, estos términos pueden usarse en este contexto para referirse a nuestros productos de financiamiento, pero mantenemos nuestra distinción de los productos de préstamos al consumidor en todos los aspectos legales.
¿Necesitas una copia del testamento de una persona después de su fallecimiento? Tal vez estás esperando una herencia y quieres conocer los detalles. O quizás deseas distribuir copias a todos los beneficiarios con la esperanza de que nadie impugne el testamento.
El proceso para obtener una copia de un testamento varía dependiendo de quién eres en relación con el fallecido y cómo este organizó su plan patrimonial. Rockpoint Probate Funding explica el proceso general para localizar y asegurar una copia de un testamento.
Los testamentos se convierten en documentos de dominio público después de pasar por el proceso de sucesión, por lo que cualquier persona puede obtener una copia. Sin embargo, antes de que se finalice la sucesión, solo ciertas personas tienen derecho legal a ver el testamento.
Cuando alguien redacta un testamento, suele nombrar a un albacea, que es la persona responsable de localizar y presentar el testamento, además de distribuir los bienes y cumplir con cualquier otra instrucción. El albacea siempre tiene acceso legal al testamento. Los derechos legales de otras personas para ver el testamento dependen del estado.
En general, los beneficiarios tienen derecho a ver el testamento. Algunas otras personas también pueden tener acceso, como:
Si no eres una de estas personas, igual puedes solicitar una copia del testamento. El tribunal de sucesiones y/o el albacea determinarán si aprueban tu solicitud.
Si no tienes derecho legal a ver el testamento y no crees que el albacea te proporcione una copia, siempre puedes esperar hasta que termine el proceso de sucesión para solicitar una copia a través del registro público.
Dependiendo de cómo planees obtener una copia del testamento, es posible que enfrentes algunos gastos. Por ejemplo, el tribunal de sucesiones puede cobrar una tarifa por solicitar ver el testamento como parte del registro público. Si estás contactando a un abogado, también podrías incurrir en honorarios legales.
Cuando busques una copia del testamento, asegúrate de preguntar por los costos desde el principio. Entender cuánto tendrás que pagar puede ayudarte a decidir cómo proceder.
Si el testamento es de dominio público, puedes solicitar una copia a través del tribunal de sucesiones donde se presentó. A continuación, se explica cómo obtener una copia del testamento en el tribunal de sucesiones:
Dependiendo del condado, es posible que tengas que pagar una pequeña tarifa por una copia certificada del testamento.
Si el testamento aún no es un documento público, intenta contactar directamente al albacea del patrimonio para solicitar una copia. El albacea suele ser alguien cercano al fallecido, como un cónyuge o un hijo adulto. También podría ser un abogado o contador que trabajó con el fallecido para crear su plan patrimonial antes de su muerte.
Si no estás seguro de quién es el albacea, contacta a un miembro de la familia del fallecido, ya que probablemente lo sepan.
Tal vez te preguntas cómo obtener una copia de un testamento cuando aún no se ha encontrado. Podrías estar buscando el testamento después del fallecimiento de un ser querido o ayudando a los familiares del fallecido a localizarlo.
Si el fallecido tenía un abogado especializado en planificación patrimonial, comienza contactando su oficina. Es probable que el abogado tenga una copia del testamento archivada, incluso si no puedes encontrarlo entre los efectos personales del fallecido.
Si no estás seguro de si el fallecido tenía un abogado o sabes que no lo tenía, revisa sus documentos para ver si puedes localizar el testamento. Es posible que lo haya guardado:
También es posible que haya distribuido copias del testamento a los beneficiarios.
Por supuesto, no debes revisar los documentos y pertenencias de una persona sin permiso. Si no eres cercano al fallecido, espera a que su familia inmediata complete este proceso.
