Q: can you stop a waiver of personal representation you have signed?
i was told i had to sign this PR waiver since i was not yet married so the next legal age heir would be my fiances father. court has not named PR yet. The day after the funeral he had filed a paper at the courthouse to recoup his burial expense to get our family boat just in his name. i paid the cost of the actual funeral. i knew nothing of this. and was told by a probate lawyer he omitted vital information in doing so thus committing fraud. now his lawyer is making him put the boat back in estate. he has also taken atleast $3000 worth of tooling for himself that i belieave should have went to estate as well has other misc. things from our home we shared for 7 years. we have 2 minor children and he has another minor child from a past relationship who did not live with us. i feel he can not be trusted and do not want him representing my children. can i stop this waiver i was told i had to sign? can i represent my fiance estate and my own children?
