Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California
My mother passed away in California on May 26th, 2011. The will that her and my father made never went to probate. The will stated that the house (worth app. $170,000.00) was left to my father and then the children. My father has dementia. Five months after my mother passed, my sister who lives with him secretly had the house put into her and her daughters name and the property that was suppose to be mine has been put into two of my other sisters names. My father has dementia and only 5 months is not enough time for him to be out of the grieving period. Is there anything that can be done? She has also cleaned out my fathers bank accounts.
