Legal Question in Banking Law in Illinois
I am the youngest of three sisters and our mother passed away. My mother wrote a letter before her passing leaving me and my older sister to split all of her finacnial proceeeds and my middle sister to have the house. My older sister has decided to keep the funds for herself and also has contacted the life insurance policy and had a check of stocks cashed out from my mothers policy. My older sister has since took the check made payable to my deceased mother and deposited it in her own personal bank account. Do I have any recourse in having these funds split equally between all of the siblings? is what my sister done legal?
