A person in her 90's, Grandma G, has named son J who has had control of and has been investing/using the estate money, w/G's permission, to settle any debts and give money and personal effects to heirs after death. Son Bu, Daughter S, were given their monetary share while G was living. Daughters, I and M are deceased and the yongest son Bi is living.
G has had meetings with the children together several times while living, and all know the plan.
When G dies, youngest son Bi is supposed to receive money,
one specific heir of M is to receive money and one specific heir of I is to receive money. Each of the 3 refused the money while G is alive, respectfully. When G dies, J holds a family meeting with S, Bi and some other relatives and again states G's wishes. Can any of the 3 heirs take J to court? There is a substantial amount of money involved.
Any websites or organizations would help. The heirs have enough to obtain an attorney. They want to go after J's assets.

No written will. G was placed in nursing home in Fla. about a year before death. Forgot to mention, another heir, son St, also got his share and he is the one who placed her in the nursing home. Up until the nursing home, no one had guardianship or conservertorship. Here's a crazy thing too. St. declared G poor as a churchmouse so he could get her Medicaid in Fla. and he is loaded.

Did G leave a will? Was J an "executor" of the estate, or a guardian or conservator of G while she was alive? If all of this was done orally, it's an uphill battle.
Put on top of that that wills and trusts are very state-specific, you need to have a probate attorney look at this QUICKLY. If she had a large estate, and some people already took their interitance, then there should be a will explaining that all. If J's hiding it, he's in trouble. If there's not, then Bi and I+M's heirs may be in trouble. You simply need to contact an attorney licensed in your jurisdiction.

You annswered your own question. If granny G was of sound mind and let son J handle everything, then the other are barking up a dead tree.
Sorry for the pun.
On a side note the answer to repeat the question.....funny,very funny!
