My parents were married for 10 years, my mother divorced him and kept the 2,000 square foot house. I remained living with my mother. I was 10 when they divorced.
My dad moved out and used his money from the divorce settlement to buy a small condo and I moved in with him when I was 16.
My mother sold her house to move upstate alone and had no place to live while looking for a new house. My father invited her to live with us for two weeks. During this time my father died suddenly from immune system failure.
My mother remained living in my dad's condo since I was underaged. She kept the money from her sold house in the bank and paid the $500 mortgage fee for my dad's condo till I was 18.
She was appointed admistrator of my father's estate since I was the only child and he did not have a will. She went behind my back and drug out probate and demanded the estate pay her for loss of equity since she never bought a new homea and lived in the condo instead.

I trusted her but she lied to me and didn't tell me that she SUED my father's estate for $80,000. Since I did not have the money to pay her, the court awarded her 55% ownership in my father's condo.
Am I right to feel betrayed? I do not trust my mother anymore. Legally she was suppose to tell me if anyone sued the estate but she did and I found out the day probate closed. I did not sue her fraud because she is my mother.
I have no father and now I feel like I have no mother either.

Honey, you need a lawyer, not Yahoo Answers. Sounds like you need to countersue
:( So sorry to hear of your screwing. I hope everything works out the best for you.

So, lets see... he got a settlement from her in the divorce, then later, she moves in for two weeks, he dies and she takes the money...?? Hmmmmm..............
It sounds like its time for you to move out on your own, friend and I would run, not walk if I was in your shoes!
PS I wouldn't cross her either...in or out of court. Feeling betrayed isn't the worst thing that can happen to you.
