What to do about an inheritance
Can you please explain to me what happens when someone leaves you a large sum of money? What exactly needs to be done? Also, do you have to file any kind of a claim form?

Re: What to do about an inheritance
Unless someone is contesting your inheritence or denying it to you, you should meet with your CPA and financial advisor about the inheritence.
If there are problems with your inheritence, or you are uncertain whether it is in the proper amount or form, you should engage the services of a qualified estate attorney to assist you.
