Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in South Carolina
stepmother contesting will
My father died at the end of
November, and even though he has
a will, his wife is contesting it as well
as acting as a creditor to the estate.
What are my sister and my rights
here. She is claiming he owed her
more than the estate is worth. And
he had much family property that
has been within our family for over a
hundred years. My sister and I are
the last of the family.

Re: stepmother contesting will
This is a question for a South Carolina probate attorney, preferably one in the county where your father lived. Good luck!
