What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Illinois
My father recently passed away and granted me guardianship of my disabled brother who is 45. He always told me that I would get a lot of money when he died but now my stepmother(retired attorney) says all their accounts and CDs are in both names and that I will inherit when she dies. The Will states My brother and I will each get 1/4 of his estate upon his death. I hate money stuff but this does not seem right-that we wait tip she dies. Can you advise me?
