Should I be entitled to an inheritance?

Question

My Father passed away two years ago , he told me that I could have a few things but I did not take them while he was alive , now his wife says that my dad was just kidding he really didn't want me to have anything. I want to know if I have any rights to obtain something.

Answer 1

I'm sorry but if the inheritance was not in writing in the will or trust then legally the inheritance doesn't exist.

Answer 2

While your step mother is selfish and insensitive, unfortunately, if your father did not leave it in his will or make you beneficiary, you are not entitled to anything.  You can certainly contest it, but it may be more time consuming and expensive than it's worth.
