beneficiary - means its her money unless im mistaken. my sisters and i divided all assets ourselves then sketched up a document that we all signed off on and notorized. our attorney said that we saved a lot of legal expense and hassle by doing so. essentially a judge will sign off on whatever the kids agree to or make the division himself per existing guidelines.

If she was the only beneficiary listed on the policy, it is all hers. The insurance company would send her the check and she has no legal requirement to share anything.

Do you mean a life insurance policy? The money is all hers. That's what being the beneficiary means. Or do you mean an insurance policy that was covering her funeral expenses and there was money left over that she somehow claimed as hers?

Maybe not fair, but probably legal for her to keep it all.

Was she the caregiver? If she was, she probably earned every cent. If not, well, that's how your mother set it up. If you want to keep your sister, you'll have to get over it somewhat.

It sounds like you will have to sue her to get the information. Is it like her to be dishonest and selfish? Good luck.
