What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Iowa
I misplaced the other message, here is what should have been posted:
My mother and aunt went to Probate their recently deceased mothers Will.
They signed a document stating that their mothers sole property was a $200 EE Savings Bond. The document stated that there was no need to Probate the Will, to which they both signed a piece of paper stating this same information. Now we believe my Aunt is contesting the action of not probating the Will. A lawyer has contacted my mother asking for financial records for their mother. For clarification purposes, we live in Iowa, I know laws vary state to state What we do know is that she is claiming there is property left in the house that my husband and I bought from my grandmother before her passing. My question is:does she have a case, or is the document final?
