Do I have any right to stop my older brothers from depleting my fathers account money?

James Brian Thomas
Answered by attorney James Brian Thomas (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
Yes, you have standing to do several things. First, consider discussing your concerns with your parents, as they are generally presumed to be able to make their own decisions, including the decision to revoke any authority that they gave to each other, or to your siblings. Second, you might discuss these issues with an attorney that practices in guardianship and/or conservatorship, which could bring your concerns to the attention of a Court that is able to stem any wrongdoing and correct any past malfeasance. Third, you might consider contacting Adult Protective Services, or a similar local agency that encounters issues of elder abuse and financial exploitation on a daily basis.

Is my text saying that I would transfer the property a binding contract?

Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
Among other things, a contract requires consideration (you receiving something of value) in return for the consideration you are offering. Your text as described does not reflect that.

How can we see the will?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
By statute in Nevada, she has 30 days to deposit the Will with the clerk of the court. A certified letter advising her of the same, retaining a copy would be a good first step. To file a petition to have her show cause why she has not filed the Will, will have a failing fee associated with it and probably three hours of attorney's fees. Thus an estimate of $1200 to $1500 would probably be in the ballpark.
