Our dad died recently and owned stock in several companies. What needs to be done with these stocks now? We live in Wisconsin
Answer
Unless these stocks were held in some sort of account naming a beneficiary, stock certificates held solely in the name of a dead person must often be retitled through a court order. This usually means some sort of probate process. You should consult with an experienced probate attorney as soon as possible. Please do not assume that I am your attorney because of my response here. Call my office in Racine (262-633-3090 or email [email protected]/* */) for clarifications or to make arrangements to retain me. Otherwise, I will not be taking any action on your case.
