How do I enter a deceased person's apartment?
The apartment is sealed. The police department put a seal on the door and I can't enter the apartment to search for a will or other documents.
Answer
If the deceased person lived in Manhattan (NY County) or Queens, there are instructions on what to do from the New York County Surrogate's Court here, and Queens Surrogate's Court here.
If the deceased person lived in a different county, contact the Surrogate's Court in the county where they lived for the procedures and forms to unseal a deceased person's apartment.
