my dad died recently he always told me he had a will ,his wife says he never how do i find out without asking?

Answer 1

If he had a will it would have been recorded at your counties court house.... you can go there to get it.

Answer 2

From the way you have phrased your question,it seems you are talking about your stepmom and from the look of it you don't seem to trust her word.
Prior to his death, I believe your dad should have furnished you more about his will and what you should do in the event of his death.He should have warned you about how cunning women can be when they become aware that a will is in existence.Furthermore, he should have told you about who to see or where to go i.e. a bank or lawyer.
If you are the only member of the family,try contacting your dad's relatives and if noone exists then try his friends.If none of them know anything then its back to basics - work in order to create your own wealth.Don't harass the poor widow as she might also be telling you the truth.She is also moaning your dad, so tread carefully.
Maybe your dad just told you about the will to merely appease you.Was your dad rich enough to leave a fortune for you, you knew him better?I'm sorry about your situation, but if you are still living with this woman,then you need to befriend her and approach this issue nicely and politely.
My advice is to always acquire your own wealth and not to look towards that which belongs to your parents as whatever you will get will leave you seething with rage.

Answer 3

First of all I'm really sorry about your Dad. The only advice I can think to give you at this point in time is to tell you to make contact with a Solicitor and take some advice about where you stand legally. Its illegal to supress a will so if his wife is not being up front with you, you need to work out what your legal position is. Good luck.

Answer 4

See if he had a lawyer draw up any other papers (deeds, trusts, whatever) and check with them; otherwise unless you find a copy of it or if it is submitted to probate and you locate it there, there is no good way

Answer 5

I'm sorry to hear of your father's passing. Go to his lawyer is all I can suggest. Good luck! Or.. the excuter of his will ( if you can find out)

Answer 6

If he does have one and you are a part of it you will be notified by a lawyer to come in for the reading of the will

Answer 7

go to the citizens advice bureau, they will be able to advise you what to do and where to go without causing a dispute. good luck.

Answer 8

ok
