What is the name of your state?OK
I am the only biological child of a man in Texas who is soon to pass. He has suffered from Parkinson's disease for many years and is highly medicated; has been for years. He is extremely well off in areas of real estate, stocks, you name it.
Father committed bigamy in order to acquire my mothers bank account, to avoid prison from embezzlement and start new life with second wife, then was abusive to her (#2) and continued to be unfaithful. (Wife #2 flew to our home state and signed out my mothers medical disability settlement while mother was out of state at a funeral. #2 was used as a chump, in my humble opinion.)
Wife #2 died fifteen years ago. Their estate was liquidated and divided among father and two step sons. Step sister did not recieve her portion, as I was told.
Father was abusive, in all areas, landing step sister and self in therapy for many years starting at young age. (reason for my aviodance.)
There are three step children from second marrige. Two boys, one girl.
The question is this: My father has drafted his will and intends to leave all to my step brothers. The girls, who were abused, are being left out. (It's a weird situation, to say the least.) The call I received was to inquire if I planned to contest the will? Can I do this?
As my father did not abide by orders in parents divorce decree and would not return college savings account, trust fund, etc, I did not expect anymore of him from will.
Does anyone have any idea why these people are terrified of me, according to my stepsister? I have had no contact with these people since 1975. I did see my father, at his request in early 1990's, but the three visits revealed a very angry, brittle little man I did not care to be around. He apparently is feeling guilty about his past deeds, and I don't need the grief.
My mother is very disabled at this point and has suffered several strokes. Were it possible, I would like to see what was taken from her returned, but realize that is probably not possible?
Any input would be appreciated. I am a 24 hour care giver for a stroke patient myself, so I am rather limited in what I can get out and accomplish.
Thanks for your time.
