A:
I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your sister and the difficulties you're facing right now. It sounds like you're going through an incredibly stressful and complex situation, especially with the care of your niece and the complications surrounding your mother's and sister's estates. It's important to remember that, in situations like this, legal rights around guardianship, inheritance, and assets can be very complicated. You may want to consider seeking legal advice to understand your rights and options.
If the father has previously lost parental rights and is now creating a difficult situation, it might be possible to challenge his actions legally. You may need to gather all the relevant documents related to his loss of parental rights and any incidents involving threats or inappropriate behavior. Keeping records of these actions, especially if they involve your niece's well-being, could be helpful if you need to approach the court for custody or guardianship.
As for the estate matters, if you're the last heir, it's important to ensure that everything is handled properly. Make sure you have a clear understanding of what legal steps are needed to manage your mother’s and sister’s estates. It sounds like there may be others trying to take advantage of the situation, and it's important to protect your rights.
