Whether or not you may be entitled to any money, depends on whether your father had a Will or not. If he had a Will and did not leave anything to the children, the Will could possibly be challenged. Do not sign anything until you talk to a lawyer. If you need assistance, feel free to contact my office at http://www.WeSettle.com, phone number is 718-616-1414.
