<prompt> Human: Hi All,My father recently passed away. He had a will that stated myself and my siblings as the inheritors with my Grandma and Aunt as executors. They dont want to be the executor and would like me to handle the probate.My father had much debt taxes, medical bills, credit cards and this will undoubtedly be higher than any of his estate has in credits. I dont have anything co-signed with him. If I act as the executor, will I be assuming any debts that the estate cannot handle personally since Im both the inheritor and the executor?Also, he was on medicaid and he was also divorced with no spouse. Im planning on talking to a probate lawyer soon but am freaking out a little from what Im reading about online.Thanks!  <response>: No, you are not responsible for any debt of his. The estate attorney should be able to help satisfy any accounts and provide guidance.
