Hi - I couldn't get this to post the first time. Question for anyone - my father died 4 months ago, we received the will this past week. I have had an attorney review it. My father left the 3 of us nothing, and we're rather confused as to why. Particularly me. His second wife inherited all. The weird thing is, my estranged brother was made the 2nd executor, not me - right here, close to my dad, and a paralegal....he received some personal items, the two daughters nothing. The other questionable thing is she dragged him in to do a will at 80.5 yrs old, nearly 3 years after he was diagnosed with dementia. The attorney says I can contest the will, but of course that will cost more than all of us have. Any thoughts? Thank you much.
My grand dad thought of trying to do that....the family lawyer made sure we all knew it wasn't possible....if that is what you want...create a trust.
