Hello, I am located in Indiana.
My father recently died and I have some disturbing confusion over the beneficiary. My father told me and my four brothers that we were all listed as beneficiaries on both his policies. However, I am now finding out that the policies have been changed recently. I started doing some digging and found out that my oldest brother forged my father's name to become the sole beneficiary and power of attorney to both policies. Additionally, this oldest brother told all of us that the funeral expences totaled $15,000. I did not believe him due to the other info I had found out - I had the funeral home fax the funeral totals - they were $10,500. What legalities can I follow to fix this situation. He is obviously attempting to take all the insurance benefits.
