Question About Inheritance by sinistermind(m): 10:18am On Apr 11, 2022 |
So I need you guys opinion and getting an opinion from a legal standpoint is even better. Mrs. K got married to Mr. B. Before the Marriage Mrs. K had a daughter who bears Mrs. K maiden name. The daughter lived with both Mrs. K and Mr. B as their daughter till they passed though there was never an official adoption. Mr. B and Mrs. K never had any child together. Before Mr. B died, he gave “their” Power of Attorney. In his Will, he stated that Mrs. K is his sole beneficiary to his Estate but unfortunately she died before him and he was too sick to update the Will. Question: Does “their” daughter have any legal claim to the property? Since he didn’t die intestate. |

sinistermind: Before the eyes of the Law the daughter who lived with them is considered theirs and therefore sole survivor. Now for a twist. Let's say that the husband is alive and both daughter and step-dad are not on good terms. The judge will likely split the estate . Being that she is only heir of the woman. And Mrs K is no longer alive, It should fall to the daughter. P.S - Why not pay a Lawyer and get this as a fact. |
