What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida
Hi there,
I'm posting this question for my grandfather who doesn't have a computer. About a month ago, my grandmother passed away. Her will states that 50% of her estate goes to my grandfather, 25% to my mother and 25% to my uncle. My grandfather does not want any of this inheritance. He has a lawsuit pending against him and believes that if the plaintiff (or their lawyers) find out that he has received it they will go after that money too.
What are his options? If you inherit money while in the middle of another lawsuit can the plaintiff go after that money? Can he just refuse to take the inheritance?
Thanks in advance!
Tom
