Was the policy taken out before you were divorced?
The divorce may have had an effect on the validity of his making you the beneficiary.
More information is needed.
Good luck to you.

YOu can always call and get a copy of the policy and claim form yourself. If the sister is contesting the policy's validity, then you need a lawyer ASAP.
