How can we see the will?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
If sister-in-law never presents the will to the court to probate it, then it doesn't do anything and it can say what it wants. In order to be effective to transfer anything, the will has to be brought into court. It is much more likely that sister-in-law will use joint ownership of assets, and not a will, to bypass this process. If you suspect foul play, get a lawyer started on this.

Can an outside child have stake in my Dad's property?

Estate Planning lawyer at Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger LLP
If Dad had two or more children and mentioned them in his will, but left nothing to child X, then X has no claim to anything. If Dad's will did not mention the existence of this child, then he may be able to get what he would have gotten by intestacy.

Can an outside child have stake in my Dad's property?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
I am not exactly sure what you mean by an "outside child." If you simply mean someone who is disinherited by the Will, the answer is generally no. There is an exempt property allowance of $14k that can be claimed by any spouse or child, so there is a chance the child could elect that. Otherwise, unless the Will is contested, the child would not be entitled to anything. The family could decide to give him something anyway. But there would be no legal requirement to do so.
