[IL] My father stole my inheritance and my identity. What can I do?

My father stole my inheritance by neglecting to notify me of it and started portraying himself as me since December 1997. I believe I should be suing him for neglect of fiduciary duties toward me — I’ve already tried. Illinois law says I can only file the report within the city where I reside.

[KY] How do I handle my deceased mother’s small estate?

My mom passed away in March. She had no assets other than her checking account. She has a little over $2,000 in that account, and I have a check for a little over $1,800 for an overpayment on her nursing home. I was her POA. She had a living will but no will that named an executor or executrix. I just want to be able to cash this check and close her checking account without too much legal expense and hassle. I was told that I would need to have her will admitted to probate and be sworn in as Executrix, then open a checking account in the name of her estate, just to be able to cash the check.
