Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Michigan
Wills
My grandmother is about to pass
away and her daughter (my aunt)
has contacted me asking for SSN#,
address and other info so we don't
have to go to Probate? My father
passed away a few years ago and I
am sure my grand mothers will
included both him and my aunt. Our
estimate of estate is $500K, but my
Aunt is telling us grandma wants to
give me 10K. Could I be entitled to
see the will and entitled to my dad's
half of the estate? Or when my dad
past away does everything
automatically go to my aunt. I have
a suspicion that my aunt doesn't
want me to see the will. Could this
be possible.

Re: Wills
Alot of this depends on whether your Grandmother's estate is going through probate or not. If there are no assets in her name, no probate. So I would be very careful about signing anything without legal counsel. contact me at www.kliszlaw.com for more info. Tim Klisz
