what do I do?
:?
My Father, just past away & my SM past a few years ago, they had written up a will but it was never signed. 90 Days after SM passed Father had her removed from all his Assets. he left no will for us children, nor for the step children. He own a home a small piece of land and a few automobils, some running some not . most of my SM's Belongings he gave to her children. and a few things he kept, now he is gone and he had an insurance policy that stated that the Estate was the Benafisherary? so I had to barrow the Money to Lay him to Rest and now I am having to figure out what to do about all step siblings and how to proceed, I had a lawyer that my Father told me to go to, but he felled to do anything . after 4 months he told me he had to pass me on to another Lawyer. I was frustrated because Nothing had been done . Now I still have all his documentation and need to know how to proceed to get the Insurance Group to give me the check so I can pay my Friend back the money I had to Barrow to Lay my Father to rest . I am Lost as to what to do next . My natural siblings have left it all up to me and no one is giving me any help. I can't afford a Lawyer at this time. But we do not wish to sell our Father's home , due to Other Family member's living in it. we just want to get the insurance to pay so I can pay back my Friend ? can any one Help me or steer me in the right direction? Pleas I am new at this and I am running out of time! ? Plus I dont know how to tell step siblings what is going on because I still dont know all my right's or their's. I am at a loss.

I am NOT a lawyer, but I am
I am NOT a lawyer, but I am pretty sure you are going to need to go to your local courthouse and talk to someone there. I think that the courts will have to appoint someone to handle your dad's estate, because there is no will. The insurance company will not pay until it is determined WHO they have to pay. I think the court will have to decide how everything is disbursed, including the insurance and the house. The laws of your state will determine what happens.
I really think you need to go down to the courthouse as soon as possible. There is nothing you can say to your step siblings until you get the info. from the courts.

They do have forms for all my siblings to sign and I can sell them but most of them are just junk, only two are any good, yet one has been over halled and it steel need to have a little more work on it but it is a good Truck the other is being used by my family that is living in the home and yet I think it is not going to last long if it dose not get checked out soon.

Thank you all for you're advice ! I do live in the same state , The state of Texas. I found new documentation that states that they were divorced when my Step Mother Passed but they were still living together when she did. My biggest concern is getting my Friend Paid back for loanning me the Money to Lay my Father to rest . all my natural siblings will sign for me to be in controll of the estate funds from the Insurance. but we do not wish to sell my Father's home . If any of this help's. I will go to the court house this week and see what I can find out. Thanks for all of you're help to all of you !
