I need someone that is proficient in probate laws specifically Alabama. I hate that I am having to ask for this help. It will be Tuesday before I can make an appointment for an attorney. Is there anyone that could PM for help?
Also, is there a way to prove a prenup existed? I'm not sure if that even matters anymore.
My dad passed a couple of weeks ago and today a bombshell was dropped on my sister and me. And with how things have been done it affects me in some ways. By the step mother's actions, we knew some things were coming and today she told it.
I know an attorney is best but I was hoping for some guidance. Knowledge is power so they say.

Don’t have the expertise that you’re looking for. I just wanted to say I’m so very sorry for your loss.

Thank you What's right. I would much rather have my father alive but he lived his life the way he wanted so at least he was happy.
On this other stuff, I was able to find out informatio and that has helped. Will be consulting with an attorney as soon as I can.

Sorry for your loss. The first year after is tough. I don't have info for Alabama, so I'm glad you were able to find resources.

Thank you Leafields. Dad had been declining in recent years, the frequent flying in and out of the hospital in the past year, and falling a lot. I do believe if he hadn't had this last fall he may would still be with us. He wouldn't tell my sister and I he had a fall until the Step-mom had to call an ambulance early in the morning 2 days later. The man was on Xarelto. He hit his head. From all accounts the fall sounded bad and no one told my sister or me until there was no choice.
He was checked over. Supposedly he was fine and new orders for a couple of scripts and home health. I mentioned to my stepmother that maybe it needed to be hospice instead of home health. HH agreed and he was placed on hospice on Thursday and he passed that Saturday morning. Thursday morning was the last he spoke. I'm glad that it wasn't a long drawn out process for him.
I don't want to deal with this other stuff. I really don't but I have no choice. The will had been changed in the past 6 months. Everything that had been told to us goes against the current will. I am waiting to hear back from an attorney after being on the phone with different ones trying to find one for contesting if needed.
There will be a meeting with the stepmother to hear it all. I'm curious to how this will play out. Maybe that will help but I like to know things before going into this meeting cold.
