What can I do if I think my dad's ex fraudulently got in his will right before he died?

Answered by attorney Jay William Moreland (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jay W. Moreland, P.A.
You would have the right to challenge the will in court, if you would stand to get something if the will was not upheld. You have a high burden of proof to challenge a will. You must show that your father executed the will while under duress, undue influence or that he was mentally incapable of understanding the extent of his property and know the likely people who would inherit his estate. The law generally will uphold a will that was properly executed. A will can be changed over and over up to the time of death as long as the will is executed properly and the testator (person who signed the will) was legally capable of executing a valid will.

Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
Varies from case to case, but anywhere from a year or more, depending on whether assets have to be converted to cash, whether beneficiaries and other interest parties are fighting.

It sounds like the will is not valid and you will need to open a probate unless there is a co-owner on the account or a payable on death beneficiary.
