my grandfather who died recently had a checking account with his name listed first, then mine and then my sister's name;it was separated by ors. my father's name was on that account somehow (secondary or co-owner but not owner as we were)what are our legal rights to that money and will inheritance tax be owed on that? do my sister and i have legal right to close out that account? what is my father's legal right if any to that money? how do we find out if probated will was last will written? how do we find out if cert. of deposit or life insurance policies carry our names in addition to our father's? please advise as there is much friction in our family currently.
