A sensitive one. 3.5 years ago my mother passed away. We had fallen out 17 years before hand and had never spoken since then. She had a long term illness and wasnt able to make decisions for herself for a few years before she died.
My nephew who grew up with me kept in touch and was the only one in the family who spoke to me. He told me i was kept in my mothers will even though we werent on speaking terms.
My father i would think would have been passed the items in the will when my mother died unfortunately he died a few months ago and im not sure if he left a will etc.
I have a brother who i wont ever talk to and a sister who i would say hi to if we ever met but thats as far as it goes.
My brother stayed with my parents all his life in the family home and would expect him to continue staying there however i feel as if other items which may have been in the will if there was one would be split between my brother and sister. Now if thats what my parents wanted then great but i know from past experience that both my brother and sister are money motivated. If i was due a share of the family house and possibly another property then i think my brother should be given the family home seeing as its still his home but would need to think about everything else.
At the monent i dont know if there is actually a will left by my father or if so its contents. If a will was left by my mother either. If no will then how do the assets be split if need be remembering i may choose if given the chance to allow my brother and sister the biggest majority given they were there for my parents when i wasnt.
So how do i procede( living in Scotland so some laws may differ from England). I cant speak to my brother or sister but want to know where i stand either if a will was left or if no will was left by my father. Cheers.
