Can i contest my fathers will he left us all an equal share but my brother made me sign a form saying he is the executor which was my fathers wish can he keep all the money and give me nothing.?

Answer 1It should not be necessary for you to "contest" your father's will. First, the Probate of an estate is ruled by the laws of the state where the deceased legally lived at the time of death.The execution [signing] of a form agreeing to allow your brother to act as Executor of the Estate does NOT ALLOW the Executor to keep anything he was not provided for IN the will.The division of a deceased's assets MUST be done as was stated by the deceased IN THE WILL. However, the Executor is, by law, required to pay all obligations of the Estate, and therefore is allowed to sell assets of the Estate in order to pay those debts, but he is not allowed to take what he may want for himself.Generally, when a person dies, the family retains an attorney to assist in the Probate process, and the FIRST THING YOU SHOULD DO is to contact him/her to make your concerns known.IF your brother were to violate the legal duties of his office as Executor, you would not "contest" your father's will, but instead as a last resort, file suit against him personally for breaking the Probate law in failing to do his statutory duties. By virtue of violation of statutory law, he may be subject to prosecution by the local District Attorney.Consult an attorney in your jurisdiction for the specific laws that will apply.
