Q: My father is passed. He's still in his mother's will who is living. Will my uncle get everything? My dad didnt have a on
My grandmother never took my dad out of her Will after he passed. When she passes will my uncle get everything or will my siblings and I get a share? My dad never did have a Will. His name is still on the land deeds also.
A: It totally depends upon how his mother's will is written, and whether or not your father had a will, was married when the died, etc. Her property could be divided only among her living children, or her will could specify that if any of her children are deceased, the descendants of that deceased child would get that share. When she passes away, her will is submitted to probate, and you will have an opportunity to monitor what happens. Or you can ask her for a copy of the will and use the Find a Lawyer tab to consult a local probate attorney.
