Is it possible to contest this will?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Robert James Slotkin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Robert J. Slotkin
There are 2 grounds that are normally used when contesting a will. One is lack of competence. The other is undue influence, whereby a person close to him used their influence (usually in a diminished state) to essentially substitute their judgment for his. These issues often come up when someone changes their will close to death. You may want to investigate when the will was done, who drafted it, who was with him at the time and what drugs he was taking. Remember that as a niece, contesting the will and invalidating it doesn't mean that the estate will go to you!

How to transfer lost car title of a deceased person?

Estate Planning lawyer at Douglas A. Tull, P.C. Attorney at Law
Take death certificate and proof of your relationship with your mother - to the Secretary of State- and explain that title is missing. If there are no other assets to probate, you may be able to transfer title to the "next of kin" without starting probate.
