Question

Hi! i received a small inheritance from my mother, but was told there was another will. i think my siblings are intentionally "cutting" me out. i need to find out if another will exists. the "will" i have is typed (my brother is an attorney!) and notarized, but sadly, i think my siblings are taking advantage of my ignorance . what can i do? my mom was a millionaire, and i only received ten thousand dollars!



Answer

If you already received ten thousand, was the Will giving you that already probated? If so, has anyone contested the filing? If not, you can keep the money. On the other hand, has anyone submitted another Will and, if so, what does it provide? If you think the "missing" Will gave you more, I have not seen the probated one nor read what it says about this, or what it may say about contests. This gets very complicated, especially if you cannot locate the other Will, and it could be very costly to both locate it and contest it. You might advertise to see if anyone has another original. This could take time and produce no results and you have a limited amount of time to file a contest. This is a response to an Internet question and the reply is for information purposes only, and is not intended to be legal advice or as creating an attorney-client relationship. The response is based upon the facts presented and if there are missing, additional or differing facts not set forth, the response could be different.
