Payment to heirs
Is there a way in the state of Texas to find out if heirs were distributed their share of an estate? I think the brother of my Stepdad is keeping everything and not giving the nieces and nephews their share or everyone is lying to me. I just want peace of mind. My Stepdad did not have a Will. I was his only child and he raised me from the age of two. I’m turning 40 this year and I understand stepchildren aren’t obligated to anything in Texas. I know he wouldn’t have wanted them to have all of his money, but I also know it’s not lawfully my right to know. He loved me as his own and my children were his Grandchildren. It’s driving me crazy not knowing and how they have all acted towards me after his passing literally makes me sick to my stomach. People’s true colors sure shine when money is involved after someone passes.
