property inheritance querry
1 year ago
HI I am a 22 year old girl. Last year I lost my father and few years back i have already lost my mother. My father left us( me, my younger brother, my two elder step sisters and 1 elder step brother) a house, insurance money that we got after my father's death and my father's pension money. Now the situation is my oldest step sister have control of all the money that we got and she is spending money unnecessarily any where she wants, so i am worried that she will spend all the money that I am entitled to and at last i will be left with nothing. So what i want is that what ever i am entitled to get legally should be given to be immedietly so that i dont feel cheated and i can take care of my studies by my self.
