Q: My father passed away in Mich. I have 2 sisters also who live in Michigan.. I live in Florida. What are my legal rights?
One sister has mental medical issues, & we need to look after her... I need to know, do i have rights still towards the estate & proceedings & decisions being made made.?
A: If your father lived in Michigan at the time of his passing, you likely need to start with talking to a Michigan probate attorney. If your father resided in Florida, but passed away in Michigan, then you will likely need to speak to a Florida probate attorney.
A:
Since your father resided in Michigan, I assume that his home was located there also. If so I suggest that you repost your question under the Michigan section of Justia to get responses from attorneys in that State.
Good Luck.
