Would judges follow a signed will over one that was not?

A signed will takes precedence over an unsigned will in Nebraska unless the signed will can be proved to be fraudulent or the terms contained therein are invalid or unlawful for some reason. In that case, the decedent would be considered intestate (no will exists at the time of death) and state statutes would determine who is entitled to the assets of the estate.

What can we do if our lawyer is telling us to waive our mother rights to our late brother's estate or get another lawyer?

Christine James
Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
Probably get another lawyer. It is unclear exactly what is being asked of you and why from your question, but it sounds like the attorney is not explaining what is going on to you the way he/she should and it sounds like the attorney-client relationship is compromised, so you probably should discuss your situation with another lawyer.
