Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in New York
will
i browwed a sum of money from my mom, which just passed away an recd a copy of her will today, i browwed $4,200 we had no written or signed agreement, except that amount would be deducted from my inheirtance. In my copy of the will it state that I have an outstanding debt of $10,081.00 how was this amount calculated? intrested or lost of gain on money? I didnt think there would be any intrested added. nor was there ever a discussion of % amount. what do I do allow my family to charge me this, or take legal action an risk making fsmily mad an doning whats fair, pay back basic amount? thank you

Re: will
Your mother had the right to leave or not leave you whatever she wanted. If she thought $10,081 was a more accurate reflection of what you owed her than $4,200, that was her call and she made it.
