You really don't know a person until you share an inheritance with them.

This has happened with me but back in India. I lost my inheritance by my own siblings by fraud tried to go to court but couldn't prove it. So I decided to get up on my own feet and show them that I can earn more then them. I got a very good paying job (engineer) a business which is running good, house paid off, nice car and I pray to God whoever is going through this may it come to ease with you. I know it is very difficult.

When families don't get along there is a will involved 🥰 hope this helps. My family took me off an I never felt so free 🥰

Have a sister who in 1992 was the executrix of our older sister's will but she refused to show the family the will. In 2011 our mother passed, and it turns out same sister was trustee of Mom's revocable living trust, but it took me writing her a letter requesting a copy of will (reason? past behavior with will) and cc'ing said letter to other siblings to get her to reveal that mom in fact had a trust and sis was trustee, but who, in a separate, personal response to me, stated she was under no obligation to show anybody a copy of the trust. Turns out sis had previously acquired power of attorney from Mom. We can pick our friends, we can't pick our family.

out of 7 siblings, my dad is the only sibling in his family that did not receive land inheritance. the worst thing is his siblings kept it from him. he did not have any idea that his siblings divided the land and did not give him his share. I talk to an attorney friend about and the told me that it was mandatory that my dad gets a share of the land and the fact that his sibling were able to execute the transaction meant that his signature has been falsified to make it look like the transaction was legal

I have one of the family saying I messed up my inheritance time the other half saying that there’s nothing there for me and none of it is making sense and I don’t even know where to begin to work. I’ve never doubt with this and I just know that everyone is either trying to cause confusion or trying to cause me to react and it’s been quite some time….

It’s not about things to me. It’s about principle and not being misled especially by people I’m supposed to turn to or should be able to.

Witnessing this right now. It seems like the most undeserving are the ones willing to fight the most for it. Don't visit, don't help, then show up when money comes into play.

Appreciate this video. I’m in a situation where I must sell the house that our mother quit claim deeded and added us in 2012. In 2019 I was forced into bankruptcy. Later our mom passed and left no money to pay property tax. I’ve tried to get my brother to sell but he is a remodeler and always wanted to update the house then sell. I’ve tried for 2 years to push to sell and was met with resistance. In 27 days the house taxes will be 3 years delinquent. I’m not waiting anymore and have a real estate attorney to accomplish either selling the house willingly now or get a partition order in which we both lose. We’ll see what he does. I have a lot of faith in my attorney that he can show that we have enough evidence that the court will agree and sell the house then divide the money 50-50 after expenses.

My youngest sister always caused conflicts in the family. She needed to get over it but never did.

I realized when I was young that people are petty and stupid when a family member dies. My mom's older brother convinced my grandma to remove all his other siblings from her will. They got everything, bought an RV and moved to Arizona. Hopefully they get what they deserve.

"Mom" pretty much put what little she had in my brother's name (let's call him "Prodigal"). No will, and not everything was in his name, there were a few odds and ends that I could have argued for. Yeah... Decade after decade of jacking around, smoking pot, laughing his way through life. So Mom pretty much knew I would be fine, so everything went to Prodigal. And that's fine, he wasted it all anyway. Then wound up literally crawling on his knees, crying, and begging for me to cover his way through life. All I could do was say "Stand up and at least try to act like a man." But, yep. "I don't want a thing, you keep it all." Greatest thing I ever said and did. As an aside, haven't spoken with my brother in four years now. Once Mom passed, I wanted nothing to do with him.

Hi, my mother refused to probate my grandmothers estate 30 years ago. Recently I discovered documents where my sister & my name was on a savings acct and CD my grandmother left for us she somehow my mother cashed in. My grandmother also had a farm we are knew were her intentions to give to us. My mother tried to get her to sign it over to her while granny was alive but she refused.she was old times and never went to a lawyer. Meanwhile now my mother almost 90, had the farm put in her name. She doesn’t need the money but was arrogant and said she might need it. Is there anything we can do? It’s so upsetting .. 4 thirty years she dangled that like a carrot over our heads then behind our backs had a lawyer name her the only heir. It’s very disturbing

When my wife passed away her brother who never contacted her sister for years, even though she tried to keep in touch, phones me up and tells me we need to come to an amicable agreement over the assets. Not one word of condolence for my loss, and he ended up getting half, even though he had a copy of a will she had made, , and never let on about it.(I didn't have a copy) leaving him 50k and the rest to me.He lied that there was no will, and I had to sell the house to pay him off, He now lives in a foreign country in a luxury villa, where I can't do anything about it, and I'm struggling to make ends meet, since I got stuck with lots of back taxes and expenses on my wife;s properties.

Thank you so much for this information. I've inherited jointly properties with my brother, some having rental income. I initially agreed to keep joint ownership, but I no longer trust this situation because he's very controlling of the information and how he wants to handle the rentals, so I'm trying to learn everything I can about it.

[GetsumJ]

Going thru this right now. Property was sold, and sister was executer, probated and will stated to be split 50/50. She ran off with everything.

[dylancalandrino]

I was never notified house sold behind my back

[LIVINGINPALMBEACHFLORIDA]

Such complicated issues. You have the answers!

[veragriffin]

My mom passed away in 2014. One sister grabbed a whole of everything, said nothing to the other two siblings about what she did, there is four loans taken out on the house as of today it’s 2021. Quit deed the house to herself. I thought when you are taken over our moms estate you are not to do everything to benefit yourself . What I got not spoken to since 2014 very very crazy.
