Subject: greedy aunts

Question
Hello, I have a greedy aunts that is the power of estate of my grandmother that has passed away 2 months ago and my aunt is not telling us anything about the will and my grandmother told us many of times that if something ever happens to her we wouldn't have to worry about anything. I know that we are on it and my grandmothers house was left to the family and she is now renting it out, what can we do to get a copy of the will and if we were left money or property what's the best advise and best way to find out anything

Answer
Contact a local attorney. This is going to get complicated, plus you  need to let the aunt know that you are serious and not just complaining pointlessly. If she believes you are not serious, she may hope to just wait you out. If you do nothing eventually she will be able to take everything.

If the will has been probated, it will be in public records at the clerk's office.

Get an attorney.
