Q: Wife's father passed his will states everything to wife. Executives family kept us out of loop. His wife is incompetent.
Executives were co executives daughter and grand. We hired a lawyer cause we were told there is no money left. All we asked for was to find out where the father's money went. Also poa was gotten illegally of the wife. Hired the layer we ask to get poa removed which was done illegally and he was removed grandson. We ask to lawyer to find out about how the fathers money was handled. We keep being told that we have to go for Guardian even though we told her it would be challenged. 9 months later nj state becomes wife's mother's Guardian and layer said this is how it had to be done. And we told that we have no right to get for an accounting if wife is not guardian. Any help would be appreciated
A: I am sorry to hear about your situation. You need to bring all of the documents to an attorney that understands NJ laws regarding guardianship and probate. There are too many questions that need to be asked of you to answer in a public forum. The attorney will definitely need to go over all of the case work done so far before you could get any competent advice.
