What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan
Complicated situation, but basically my two good friends mom got diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in her chest and 7 separate parts of her brian out of nowhere, and just passed away yesterday not even 2 weeks later.
She has been seeing a new man for at most 3 years as of right now, and after viewing her will, they saw that she made a new copy in july 2010 that names her boyfriend POA and beneficiary, she would have only known him for 2 years at that time.
Details on if she has life/mortgage insurance are cloudy still, but the man gets 19% of her company that he had nothing to do with, and her kids got 14.5% (and they have worked there for years)
Is there any way they can fight this? They thankfully didnt get married sooner like her boyfriend obviously wanted but he apparently conned his way into the will. She had been degrading mentally for a while (because of the cancer we assume) and 15+ people agree she was not in her right mind but the law would say how could she run a company if she was incompetent.
Many people know something shady is going on, I havent typed half of it, but its bad when even doctors and employees at the funeral home are warning them about the guy (he keeps trying to get her SSN and other info for reasons he wont disclose)
It seems like my friends could potentially end up out on the street with nothing because this joker could steal it all from them. He already said after the funeral he is going to "just dissapear for a while" which sounds like steal the life insurance and run. so I guess im hoping to hear some kind of good news I could relay to them before they meet with the lawyers, they have had a lot piled on them very fast and now all of this on top of it.
