    How to handle estate with no will
    My father passed away and did not have a will. He doesn't really have much and he filed bankruptcy last year. He does have a car, truck, and van that are paid for. The truck and van aren't worth much. The car is worth a little - probably enough to pay off his back taxes he owes. I don't know how to sell any of the vehicles and pay his taxes? The car actually has someone's else name on the title (his name and 'or' instead of 'and'). Can I provide a death certificate and sign the cars over to someone else and use the money to pay his back income taxes?

    In most states you can file an affidavit for small estates like this which would enable you to administer the personal property. Which state are you in?
