What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Nebraska
My grandfather, who actually lived in Texas, left me in his will. My father, who I have had a falling out with for some time, contacted me to let me know that I was left an annuity. He wanted to meet up so that I could "sign some papers" but did not disclose any further details. A couple questions:
1) Can my father hold the annuity from me if I do not want to meet.
2) Do I have an rights to request the documents myself, or is it possible that he HAS to be present or sign anything that might have been left to me? I am not a minor, but it is possible that this will was written when I was.
3) Should I contact an attorney if he is not willing to forward the documents to me, or am I going to spin my wheels on something?
4) If I decide that the hassle isn't worth it, is there any way that my father could assume ownership of the annuity?
Thanks in advance!
