No one is lecturing you, your Mum has no claim end of, I lost one of my brother late last year, he was married had no will (well no legal wiil) widow got/gets nothing, after the funeral expenses his children get a share of the estate.
What he was going to do is very different to what he did do.
Not sure why you don't just go and seek professional consulation from a solicitor :eek:

Think your information is slighty incorrect!

So, if she now has a claim against the CSA she may well get all that is owed, if the estate is worth more than that.

It's not my information , it is what happened, he was not married very long and had no children with his wife, the will he was wrote requested his estate be shared by 2 of his children and my Mum, however now it will be shared between 5 of his children and 2 grandchildren. He did not get this witnessed and as such the intestate rules applied. My Mum could put in a claim, however for it to be succesful, all beneficiaries would have to agree :eek:

It is entirely natural to wish you could have your father back, rather than his money - but don't begrudge your mum what she is owed - she paid for everything for you as you grew up when she should have had help.

there was no spouse, he split with my mother 25 years ago and his second wife 16 years ago both divorced, i was his next of kin as the eldest child

Sorry, cheza, my reply in answer to DUTR's post.

In your case, the intestacy rules mean his children will inherit after the funeral and debts are paid. For your mother's claim to succeed, she will have to prove that the money was owed to her by your father. As you've already had contact from the CSA, it looks as if she can.

I agree that the way she approached you was awful and at a time when she should have been more concerned about your welfare.

i dont grudge her it and she did have help may not of been my natural father but she didnt raise us alone, the way she went about it, and all the time she could have asked or fought for money in the last 25 years and didnt is what has caused all this, and the fact her children were gettin the money no one else why take it from them after all this time, like i said before never questioned the legality of her claim or her legal right, just becose someone says your entitled to something doesnt mean it is right to do it, all i am saying is i couldnt and wouldnt but i guess i have a different outlook on things like this as do others i spoke too, the best part is the insurance aint even paid out yet due to circumstances in death and might not and she knows this and reasons why, but she jumped the gun wen there could be nothing and she may have lost her daughters and still get nothing, there are other things happening that i cant really talk about on here but I cant forgive her for wat she has done. well i wont be posting again once again thank you all, its good to talk to strangers you get points from both sides of a faction, thank you all

Excellent point often over looked

But it was the responsibilty of the natural father to pay, not the other person who did -like my case. My husband now paid towards my daughter by my ex - so technically I could give him half of what was paid to me (in arrears!) as we are a unit, he gets it anyway.
