My aunt passed & myself & another nephew supposed to be left estate, but no will was made. Now come to find out the other nephew's name was POD/ITF on both bank accounts.She has seen that nephew once or twice her entire life & i was part of her life as she lived across the street as i was growing up. He lives about 600 miles away & did not even attend funeral or send flowers.I made all the funeral arrangements, got a priest to give last rites, she asked for me on her death bed & i was at her side when she passed.I also visited her at least twice a week while she was in the hospital/nursing home for about a month, as she lived about 100 miles away. I hired a sitter at $13.00 hr. to sit with my wife as my wife has several health issues,so it was pretty costly[retired on fixed income] spending at least $100 or more plus gasoline each trip.She told a few of her friends that she was leaving everything to the 2 of us & nothing to a sister that she despised & has not spoke/seen to in over 20 yrs.She asked me on several occassions to be the executor of her estate,i told her ok just let me know when you write your will.Well she passed with no will, BUT GUESS WHO stepped in to be the administrator of her estate? HER SISTER, who my aunt did not want to know anything about her being hospitalized. The other nephew got left over $200,000[both bank accts]. At first i told him $120,000 was left to him as that was in one of the accts & his reply was WHY ME? Now come to find out he got both bank accts over $200,000. Here is the KICKER i found in some of my aunts belongings a document where she was hospitalized in Oct,05 [found by a friend after falling] & given an evaluation of competency & found to be incompetent & with dementia & a medical power of attorney was appointed, that was in oct.2005. She had the other nephews name put on both bank acct.in nov. 2008, 3 years after being found with dementia & incompetent by a licensed clinicl psychologist.I have spoke with the atty that is handling the estate & he suggested that i talk to the other nephew about him sharing some of the $200,000 with me instead of me contesting it & if i should win that it would all go to the estate & split 3 ways instead of maybe sharing some with me, i would be happy with 1/3 & he 2/3 with out going to court.I have been long winded enough but from what i have told you, your opinions [not smart]are welcome.Oh, she lives in ohio, whatever laws apply.
