How do I get half of whatever money my family member left?

Answered by attorney Mark Schaefer (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Elder Law Office of Mark Schaefer PC
You used the term administrator, so I assume your father or brother died without a will. You will need to contact a probate attorney to file a petition for an accounting. Unfortunately, there is no standard form for that petition. Your sister will then have to present what she received as administrator, what she paid out, and what she has distributed to heirs. If you agreed to a waiver of bond when she was appointed, then you should not delay. If you get a judgment against her you will then have to try to collect on it. If she was required to post a bond, then you have some security there as long as you have not agreed to allow her to be discharged and relieved of liability. Contact a probate attorney promptly.

First, if mother is still alive, she may have survived to the property by right of joint tenancy title. Second, assuming your mother is not alive, the father would have specifically disinherited the remaining sons to the exclusion of the son who inherited.

You should consult with an estate litigator. It sounds like you need to challenge the trustee in court.
