Q: How to address a will and trust made by a family member that used her parents to remove her other children?
My siblings and I believe our little sister fraudulently coherence our edlerly parents in changing their will from their original will. My father died in 2021 and my my mom died 2024. Both of them were in their 90’s when the will was changed and both not in good health. My siblings and I do not have a lot of money to invest in changing her scheme. Right now, a “Will” has been presented; however, my littlest sister in question, did a lot of the paperwork online. What can we do?

A: Hire a FL attorney to at least examine the proffered Will for proper execution and terms. Many computer wills are insufficient and rarely executed properly. If the document is not a proper will then someone needs to file a Will Contest, which is expensive.
Pamela J. Fero agrees with this answer
A: You need to engage an attorney and change the document. If you believe your Mother was unduly influenced that is a legal basis to challenge the document. Unfortunately, what you are experiencing is not uncommon today.
