A: Your Dad's Last Will, cannot be changed after he died and only he could have changed it during life. You need to consult with a probate attorney in the area where your Dad lived at his death. Since you Dad died over ten years ago there is likely some type of probate that was already done closer to the time after he died.

Good Luck,
