What am I entitled to if my Dad didn't leave a Will?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Charles Richard Perry (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Charles R. Perry
It's more complicated that what you state, but you are on the right track. The big questions are whether any of the real estate was in joint tenancy with your stepmother or not, and whether your father had any separate property. We also have to know where your father was living at the time he passed away. You will likely need to hire a lawyer to help you straighten this out. You can help yourself, however, if you can locate the deeds to the real estate that your father owned. Those deeds will tell you how title to that property was held.

Can rights to an inheritance be relinquished after the fact?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
Tell them to take out the estate language or to clarify that Person X will not participate in any wrongful death proceeds paid to the estate. Generally, a wrongful death claim is a claim of the estate, not the children. Therefore, when the claim is paid, if it is, then the estate will get it. If you don't want the proceeds, then you have to give up your rights to that portion of the estate.

Irrev. LT. Amended can Tee enforce what clauses he chooses and what if clauses contradict each other?

Answered by attorney Gerald A Bagazinski (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Gerald A. Bagazinski
It depends on whether the clauses are contingent or contradictory as you indicate. You should have someone review the trust document so they can address your specific concerns.
