As inheritances fall, a boom in disputes

Although part of it is money, so much inheritance fights are emotionally driven. Before my Dad died, he explained to me and my Mother what his wishes were and put it in writing. My brother believes he's been wronged and there's nothing that's going to make him change his mind. If a parent leaves you less than another sibling, it's really not about the money, it's a hard pill to swallow that you are thought less of. I believe people can do whatever the hell they want to do with their money and children should respect it.
