Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
You may not need to go through probate. Contact a lawyer and see if your uncle's estate can be resolved without probate. If probate is needed, you should hire a lawyer, although you do not need to.

Do I have any right to stop my older brothers from depleting my fathers account money?

James Brian Thomas
Answered by attorney James Brian Thomas (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
Yes, you have standing to do several things. First, consider discussing your concerns with your parents, as they are generally presumed to be able to make their own decisions, including the decision to revoke any authority that they gave to each other, or to your siblings. Second, you might discuss these issues with an attorney that practices in guardianship and/or conservatorship, which could bring your concerns to the attention of a Court that is able to stem any wrongdoing and correct any past malfeasance. Third, you might consider contacting Adult Protective Services, or a similar local agency that encounters issues of elder abuse and financial exploitation on a daily basis.

A spouse cannot be disinherited, so if the trust tries to disinherit the spouse that spouse can claim the "spousal elective share" which is 1/3 of the "augmented estate." A lawyer who practices in this area can help you determine what every heirs true rights are.
