What are we entitled for if dad didn't have a will?

Answered by attorney Eric James Smith (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
Yes, you have a right to a portion of both his separate property (property he owned prior to marriage, and to community property. However, there is no requirement that a probate proceeding be started just because your father died, and to assert your intestate succession rights (the rights of heirs when there is no will), you will have to file a probate proceeding in the county where he died or resided when he died. If your father died without any land titled in his name, it is possible no probate proceeding will be started unless you start it.

In Indiana, a power of attorney is a simple document that most any lawyer can likely draft for you for a flat rate. I would suggest you contact a local estate planning attorney and put them in touch with your parents. They can also discuss their will with that attorney at that time.

If everything was joint with his new wife, then no. If he had any property in his name alone then you may be entitled to something, depending on what it was.
