Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Connecticut
I just found out who my real father was. It turns out I was adopted and never knew it. Because of this, I had a much harder path in life than I would have had if my REAL FATHER had stepped up and done the right thing all those years ago and not abandoned me. I don't know ANYTHING about my real father, but I have a feeling he might have been a very wealthy man who left my half brothers and sisters (yes, I found out I have some of them too) a lot of wealth as an inheritance; he died five years ago. It is my feeling that I should be entitled to some of that, especially as I had to struggle a lot without my REAL FATHER. I live in Florida; my half brother lives in Connecticut.
My question to you guys is DO I HAVE ANY LEGAL RECOURSE now?

If you are no the product of a marriage between your mother and father you have no right to inheritance.
