What is the name of your state? Illinois
My father passed away and his hand-written, unnotorized will left me $100, my sister a car and his wife everything else. My sister, myself and the wife are named as beneficiaries on his life insurance policy. The wife is appealing to get part of the money left to my sister and myself. Is she legally entitled to part of our money if we are names as beneficiaries by my father? The insurance company cannot disburse our money until the appeal is settled. Can she sue us to pursue this issue further? What are our rights as beneficiaries?
