What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New Jersey
My dad sent me the first few pages of his will showing that he made seperate provisions for my nieces and myself upon his demise.
He passed away in 2010 but my stepmother said he did not have a will. She filed a probate in 2012 and everything, houses, bank accounts and rental properties were placed in her name. Upon her death this past March in Boston, I was told by her son, my step brother,who is an estate attorney, that nothing was left for myself, my son and nieces, and his mother placed everything in his and his sisters name solely. Should I proceede with litigation or is it to late to claim an inheritance? My father's sister, my 101 and 10 months old aunt says he told her he did in fact make a will in Ft. Lauderdale. Do I need attorneys in both states?-Please help with any advice that could put an end to this unfairness..thanks in advance.
