How could I deny property inheritance?

Answered by attorney Bruce Darrell Steiner (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Kleinberg, Kaplan, Wolff Cohen, P.C.
You can disclaim (refuse to accept) the condo. You may do so within 9 months from your mother's death, if you haven't accepted it or any of the benefits of it. A lawyer can prepare the necessary papers and file them with the court. If you disclaim it, you can't say who gets it. It will pass as if you had died before your mother's death.

My mom, my ex and myself own a duplex . My mom lived on one side is on other. Mom died leaving her half of duplex to boyfriend. Can I contest ?

Answered by attorney Lori Nevias
Estate Planning lawyer at Lori Nevias, Attorney at Law
If the will was properly executed, unless you can prove that the boyfriend coerced or unduly influenced her into leaving him her half of the duplex, you probably cannot contest the will- especially if there's a no-contest clause, which would generally provide that you lose your share if you challenge the will. It is important to have the will or a copy reviewed by an attorney to make sure it was properly executed.
