Can my brother as the sole beneficiary take all the money from my father's estate even if there was no will?

Answered by attorney Bernard H. Greenberg
Estate Planning lawyer at Kokish & Goldmanis, P.C.
The best advice is to immediately visit with an attorney who specializes in estates. If there is no Will, there is no named estate beneficiaries. There may be named beneficiaries on specific accounts, insurance or other assets. Generally, those beneficiary designations will control absent undue influence or coercion.

Who will inherit the deceased siblings portion from a mother's will?

Answered by attorney Dera L. Johnsen-Tracy
Estate Planning lawyer at Horn & Johnsen SC
Assuming the land you are referencing is still titled solely in your mother's name with no transfer on death designation, and also assuming her will is valid, then the answer to your question depends upon the terms of her will. When your mother dies, all assets that that are titled solely in her name at the time of her death and that are not passed to beneficiaries by virtue of beneficiary designations or transfer on death designations will be part of her probate estate. After all of her debts and expenses have been paid, and after the death probate process has been concluded, your mother's remaining probate assets will ultimately be distributed to the beneficiaries named in her will. If your mother's will indicates that her property will be distributed to her children, per stirpes, then your deceased sister's interest will pass to her child. However, if your mother's will indicates that her property will be distributed to her surviving children, then your deceased sister's interest will pass to you and your surviving sister. It is always a good idea to review your estate planning documents following the death of a spouse or child. Therefore, if your mother is still alive and competent, I would strongly encourage her to meet with an estate planning attorney now to review her will and other documents in order to ensure that her documents will ultimately accomplish her estate planning objectives. ___________________________________________
