What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia
My father died in 2009.
Will entry states:
I give, devise and bequeath all the rest and remainder of my estate of every nature and description, tangible and intangible, real and personal, to my wife, (name), to manage for the benefit of my three children, 1, 2, and 3. If one or more of them should predecease me, then I direct that his share go to his children, if any, and to his remaining siblings if has no children. I give my wife complete authority to distribute to my children from my estate as she deems fair and equitable. Should either of the children challenge my will, I direct that he will not receive anything derived from the assets of my estate.
2011, my stepmom died intestate and did not distribute anything to my brothers nor I.
Her older brother moved into her house, spread some of the property around his family and then he died 04/13 with a will leaving my dad's stuff to his niece (who is also the executor of his will). The total estate of the three decedents is around $3M (Uncle was worth about $25k).
I received a disclaimer from the attorney handling the estate of my step-uncle. I do not want to sign it. I am not able to afford an attorney. I believe my father's estate is solvent and worth about $500k.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
