What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maryland
My husband died 20 years ago leaving 3 children. His brother died 5 years ago leaving 2 children. They have one remaining brother that has 2 children.
My husband's mother..their grandmother is redoing her Will. She plans to give each of the children something. However, I thought that the Will is suppose to be divided by 3 and then that share divided by the number of children? This is their right as children of the deceased parent. Please let me know if Maryland views this differently? I feel something isn't being told to me from my mother in law (the grandmother). Also, the grandmother is a widow.
Thank you so much for your help.
