Q: Who stay with the property if my step mom left it to my step brother and my dad but they are both death.she left a will.
My step mom left a will that half of the property would go to my step brother and my dad but they both die with out writting a will who get to stay with the property my step mom and dad didnt have any children together.but my mom has her children from her first married and my dad has 4 kids of his own.
A: This depends on what the Will says. It might say that it goes to the heirs or beneficiaries of whoever predeceases your mother. It might say something else. Take it to a local probate lawyer who can interpret it for you.
A: I suggest you consult with an experienced probate attorney to ascertain your rights and learn of any available options in pursuing them. Most will offer a free consultation and I always suggest you consult with at least 2. Do not rely on advice given on a forum such as this as it is meant for general information purposes only, not to address case specifics. Best wishes.
