when my parents died the original will disappeared and one that was signed by my dad 24 hours before he died of prostate cancer was submitted to the courts. I have seven other siblings when you divide an inheritance of 1.4 between eight kids that is a good chunk of money. My brother had gotten my dad to sign a will that disinherited everyone but him. it was fought in court and went to arbitration. my brother agreed to the fair distribution of the arbitration when we showed proof that he and his wife had forged my dads names on checks after he had died. six month later when he his wife could not be prosecuted for the forged checks because of the statuette of limitations we were back in court him challenging the agreement. eventually after seven years in court it ended at the time there was only one sibling that was financialy able to pay for the lawyers. My brother who paid the legal fees called it blood money and distributed his share of his inheritance to the other surviving siblings except for the brother wgho caused the mess.....
I have warning to all who have elderly and sick parents watch out for any body that upon finding out the person is dying decides that is the time to move in and take care of them especially if they have ignored the person for years and wanted nothing to do with them.
Unfortunately, the feuding is not always about money.
I would never have believed what happened when my mother died.
